chrome accents

Metallic decorative touches

Chrome accents are decorative metallic trim pieces on vehicles, appliances, or furniture—strips, bezels, or edging that add visual contrast and a polished appearance.

On cars, chrome accents often appear around windows, grilles, and door handles: The new model comes with chrome accents on the mirror caps.

The term applies whether the finish is actual chrome plating or chrome-look plastic.
