Dechroming a VW Tiguan R. Really nice car, but the chrome really didn't suit it at all... Customer asked for the factory style night pack! check out the result!

    Also is a 5ft x 1ft sheet enough for the trim your working on at 7:43 mark?

    This is stunning. Might get mine booked in for some de chrome. You say at the end some of it isn’t perfect due to how hard it is. Can I ask which bits. I would probably want the window frames roof bars and lower skirt chrome bits done. So I am guessing the slightly easier bits as the front grill is very hard. 😂

    The front grille was horrific to do. That will never be perfect. Thanks for comments means alot.

    Nice video! I have a black Tiguan R, but it has chrome all around its body. I’d love to black it out by myself with matte black stickers. Do you have any recommendations for the stickers; which brand and tools should I buy? (I’m a newbie)

  • @topwrapzltd

    @topwrapzltd

    Absolutely, I'd recommend arlon gloss black.... A squeegee , heat gun and a wrap glove.... Hook the ends with a small amount of stretch then squeege the middle down . Practice your trimming technique and take your time. This will likely take you a long time but will be so satisfying to DIY.

    Hi nick, this job took me a day and half , HOWEVER the roof rails were quite a long piece of job, so removing this and adding the mirrors mean s with a really early start , say 8am , this could be done by 4.30.... we are really close to Birmingham central and have loads of things to do very locally also. Either way nick , i'm more than happy to advise , this costs nothing , this is a real passion for me so more than happy to help you make the right decisions R.E your dechrome work.

    This vehicle price was 650.00 , the job took two full days to complete. The Audi / VW black line packages run into 3295 GBP so this is massive saving. Hope this helps.

    Genuinely curious: Wouldnt it be easier to remove the trim pieces and wrap/spray them off the car? My understanding is that they can be removed easily...

  • @topwrapzltd

    I wish it was so simple. Most the time they buckle on removal, and actually wrapping these without them being held by the car would take much longer and likely lead to worse quality. Genuinely wrapping in place is important to a high quality finish. Good question.

    @@topwrapzltd Thanks for taking the time to reply. I did wonder if maybe it was hard to remove them without breaking. Also, I take your point about work holding. I bet the trim pieces would be a struggle to hold on to. Cheers.
