You either have to paint it or wrap it or hydrographic dip it. No such thang as black OEM surround. They were all silver from the factory.
Heck it's almost impossible finding the silver ones..!! |

My bad... I guess the base models did come with black surrounds. Still, you'll probably have to find a wrecked base to salvage the surround.

The base and SE models both had black surrounds
refer to this thread for instructions : https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum...m-removal.html |
Re: where can i get black windshield Bezels?
Your options are to paint them, wrap them, or trade with someone who has a base model who might be interested in the silver.

Is it my monitor, or are the pockets in the wheels painted black?

Hmmmmm - I read somewhere that the SE had 'special' wheels, not exactly like SRT6 wheels.
I could be wrong. |

Start with the center piece first near the junction where it meets a side piece. Begin by pulling up, away from the glass. I suppose you could use something to pry with if you cant get it up far enough to get a good grip on it - I'd suggest prying near the glass because a pry tool is less likley to damage the glass than the paint. I didn't need to pry with a tool but you can if you want. There are 5 clips under the center section, also 5 matching clips attached to the car. Clips are attached with double-sided mounting tape. When I pulled mine off most of the clips released from each other as they should but a couple of the clips clung to each other and the mounting tape is what released. Don't worry about breaking clips (they're steel) the worst that can happen is the mounting tape will come off. If that happens, clean good and use new mounting tape to put the clip back where it belongs. I don't want anyone adding to the thread about losing surround pieces while going down the road. Once the center section is off you will have the confidence to yank off the side pieces in the same manner. :cool: Views of the clip locations... https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum...nt-screen1.jpg https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum...t-dscf2912.jpg |

I have not done this before, but from the shape of the clips, it looks like the upper trim piece will release from the clips easier by prying up from the back.

Re: where can i get black windshield Bezels?
Syfi, A new post today about trim coming off included a picture of the clips together. I think your suggested method is correct. I copied, zoomed in, and cropped that picture. It appears that at the back of the two clips (top of photo), the bottom clip folds over the top clip which would make it difficult to remove first.

Thanks for everyone's help. I was going to try to wrap myself but I just don't have the time and I can't find anyone in Fort Myers Fl that will quote me a price so for now it's on the back burner.
