I don't know of any chrome trim around a 92-95 Civic fender...do yoiu mean trim around the window? You could always clean the chrome trim, scruff sand it with 400 grip sand paper or a red sctoch bright, and then paint int black. If you get some "Flat Black" paint, like a black bumper paint, "Euroblack" paint that matches factory blacked out trim, it will give it the flat plastic look you are looking for. Go over it with 3 or so coats,, and keep the last coat light. Let the paint flash in between coats, the flash time should be listed on the bottle or the MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet).
