My wife just got a 2025 Prestige SX, and she’s thinking about removing the chrome and silver accents from the door panels. I have some experience with trim removal, but I’m curious if anyone knows whether this trim piece is attached with pop clips or 3M tape before I start messing with it.
Also, the black replacement part looks like it could just be removed without needing to be replaced. Has anyone dealt with this before?

I’m looking at getting this model too. How’s the car aside from the door panel trim?
We’ve had the 2023 PHEV for almost two years. It’s been great with no issues. My commute is perfect for the plug-in, so I mainly drive it in electric mode. When the engine kicks in, the acceleration is good in sport mode.

How’s the acceleration? It’s the main issue I hear about with these cars.
I’m not a good judge of that. I drive a modified WRX STI, so it all feels slow to me. I only drove it for a test drive, it’s my wife’s car, I’m just helping her with what she wants.
What about using PPF wrap instead of vinyl wrap? I had it on my 2021 Sorento, and it’s a very durable material. It comes in both glossy and matte finishes.
