How do you remove the chrome window trim from A4 2.8Q ?
 

I have a 98 A4Q 2.8 and I want to remove the chrome trim from the sides (that goes around all the windows.) Yeah, I want the "look" of the 1.8T, I just don't like chrome much.

So, acm anyone tell me if this is something I can do easily - and how? This is a leased car so I must be able to put it back on!

Will it look the same as the turbo after this?

Thanks in advance to any one kind enough to respond!

Check the archives as this has come up a lot in the past. I don't believe I've ever seen anyone post that they have been sucessful in doing this, but there could have been some I missed. I asked around about this when I was considering getting a 1.8 vs. 2.8 and never got a successful idea.

I don't think it would look the same as the 1.8T, as it has black trim. It would probably look like an A4 without trim...probably a little weird. I agree with you though-- I don't much care for the chrome trim on the 2.8 either.

How about a flat black plastic film, cut to fit, applied like Stongard?

Thanks, everyone.... guess I'll look into obtaining the 1.8 trim (nt)
