Let's see how to cover the chrome with a black vinyl wrap on the front grille and headlights of a Citroen C4 Cactus: this is an economical, safe, and reversible method that can be done very easily at home. If we decide to proceed, we can purchase a roll of black vinyl to apply with a heat gun, or even more simply, an adhesive like the one shown in the video.

We need to be very precise in cutting, so we should take our time to achieve a perfect result. Alternatively, we can replace the parts by purchasing them in black from Auto-doc, which offers the entire range of spare parts.

Or, if we are sure we don't want to go back, we can choose to disassemble the pieces, sand them down, spray an adhesive primer for plastics, and paint with spray paint for plastics (glossy or matte as we prefer).
