Default Blacking out window trim ..

I don't like the chrome window trim ,just wondering if anyone has theirs blacked out and if so what did you use .I used 3m tape on my last car but the wide curve on the back might be tricky with the tape..I know some come factory with it blacked out , unfortunately mine did not .Thanks in advance for any help .

Wrap is the best way. I had it done 2 years ago and then removed it about 6 months ago...now I am getting it done again. I also had the rims done to platinum grey (below) and wasn't entirely happy, so they went back to silver, but now also to likely be powder coated to a colour called Kingston grey

what's good to clean those with? I remember reading like a compound but can't remember the exact name..
mine have bad stains I'm guessing water spots etc and want to get them back to shiny
