Dechromed the bumpers of my Volkswagen Taigun 1.0 TSI MT

We came to an agreement that if the chrome trim is removable, vinyl wrap would be the better option. If not, then spray painting would be the only option.

Dechromed the bumpers of my Taigun 1.0L TSI Topline MT:

I recently got the bumpers of my Volkswagen Taigun dechromed. I got it done at Car Cosmetics, Mysore - my friendly neighborhood car accessory shop. We came to an agreement that if the chrome trim is removable, vinyl wrap would be the better option. If not, then spray painting would be the only option. I was not very comfortable getting the trim painted on a 2 month old car. But then we realized that the chrome panels were detachable, albeit it was quite difficult to remove considering the sheer number of locks and since it's made of very very thin plastic.

Sharing some pictures of the dechroming process:
