Looking for black truck trim

Looking to remove the chrome on the rear trunk. Really do not want to plastidip again (don't like the look) or vylin since i've never done it. Hopefully I can just purchase the trim piece in black if anyone knows of a source?

I had a company hear in Australia try and laminate the rear boot trim in Carbon fibre, however, the trim kept snapping apparently through the curing process.

So I just had mine wrapped along with the door handles.

Cheap and easy and has lasted the last 6 months with no issues.

Well done! Is that got a pearl look to it?

Yes, it's slightly different but better than the chrome.

You can wrap it yourself. I have never done any wrapping prior. But I bought the 3m wrap from Amazon, watched a bunch of youtube videos and just went to work.
