Black Yaris, this may sound a bit weird, but how about red-painted badges for both purposes of contrast and chrome removal?

I am not a fan of it either, but you have to have a couple small touches of it here and there on a alll black car.... chrome lug nuts, chrome front and rear badges and chrome exhaust tips (ya'll have not seen the new ones yet)..... very very little chrome

I have high polished wheels they are NOT chrome.

I would love to paint the interior of my headlights white, smoke the plastic piece, smoke the side turn signal and rear tails and color match the front and rear emblem but I don't have the balls.
