De-chroming — the Shadow Line Package — Raszyn
Professional body styling that does away with the factory's shiny chrome. We wrap every strip, grille and accent in a dedicated film in deep black (usually gloss black; matte or satin on request). The result is a modern, sporty look — like the factory BMW Shadow Line, Mercedes Night or Audi Black packages. Our studio is in Raszyn near Warsaw.
Black accents instead of dulling chrome
After a few trips through Warsaw's touchless car washes, factory chrome often oxidises, mottles with white spots and dulls from the harsh chemicals. De-chroming permanently masks that damage and gives the car an aggressive, sporty character. We use only leading cast films (3M, Avery Dennison) with a piano-lacquer finish and no orange-peel texture. The process is 100% reversible — the film can be safely removed, restoring the factory chrome.
Who it's for
- Drivers after the Night / Shadow Line package look
- Cars with dulling, mottled factory chrome
- Fans of sporty, aggressive body styling
- Anyone wanting a change without irreversible respraying
