I have a 2020 Equinox LT and am not a fan of the chrome.
I have already debadged it and have taken the front and rear trim and sanded and painted them.
Has anyone used the options they have on ebay for the stick on trim or exchanged the chrome out for all black?

Some people with the factory black chrome trim are having trouble with the film peeling off.
That's what I'm afraid of, but sanding and painting while on the vehicle is not an option.

Hey folks. On the subject of blackout, I have a 2020 Equinox Premier 2.0t and I really wanted the wheels - black.
National Hubcap offers wheel skins. They have ‘skins’ that match your alloy wheels EXACTLY. The pop on like hubcaps. My friends (who are car guys) could not tell they were polyethylene hubcaps the attach securely. See pic

I ordered the vinyl wrap and It looks good though it is a bear to handle and apply when it's the first time.
I have a bubble and in the passenger door corner I had it stuck but overnight it pulled up but the stuff sticks like a second skin by the second day.
They say to use a blow dryer to heat it but it was 95 and felt like 105 when I applied it and you could hardly touch it.
It should last better than if I painted it.
Thanks for the heads up.
