De-chroming

[The Finance Guy]

Has anyone de-chromed a Focus titanium? Thinking about it on my 2017, but would be interested to see pics of someone else’s before I make a start and potentially ruin it.

Not overly sure if this helps but I dechromed my 09 titanium, I bought a new bonnet lip on eBay for £30 and sanded it down, primed/painted it and reattached it with the tape it came with..rear on the other hand wasn't as easy..owner before must of had problems as hes stuck it down with tigerseal, or some sort of silicone, but I just overloaded it with newspaper, sanded it and painted it while it was attached, both have come out pretty good for someone that's never painted a car.. although the bonnet lip is coming up as the tape isn't holding..so need to find a way to hold it down..
