Vinyl Tape to cover chrome, etc. What kind and where?

You guys have a lot more knowledge and experience than I do, so would anyone be able send me a link for really good tape or vinyl that I can buy just to tape up the front grill to delete the chrome and some of the black plastic? I am not looking for a huge roll but maybe just enough to mess around with?

Thanks.

Zephyr

Do not worry about the BMW's in the front page, the vinyl is universal!

Thanks for that site man. That is much easier to navigate and read then stickercity

They also sell their rolls in trim blackout-friendly sizes.

Ditto that. Cheap enough for a DIY and if failed; small loss.

This is probably a better size and much cheaper...3" is still too wide.
