If you have to ask, maybe you should probably keep them on...

WOW, please remove it!!!

Why do you say your CLA45 is fully loaded? You are missing the NSP, Recaro seats, carbon fiber, AMG illuminated door sills etc

Its fully loaded with Chrome strips from autozone. Or were you fully loaded when you put them on every possible edge? Please take them off, no wait...leave them on so we see you coming and steer clear.

I haven't seen that done before on a black car! Def a huge contrast to the black.

It's look extremely tacky and really has no business on this type of car. I did this to my dodge neon way way waayyyy back in the day when I knew nothing about modding. This just cheapens your car.

I wouldn't do this to any of my cars, but if you like it keep it on. It shouldn't matter what anyone else thinks.

OP: Are you in Baton Rouge? If so, I'll probably see this in person some time soon. There are very few CLA in town and yours will certainly be conspicuous. Did you do this at a shop or yourself?

You missed the chrome wheel arches and door handle inserts.

I wrapped all the chrome with black vinyl on my 507 so that is not my style at all.
