Windows – Change Color of Chrome Address Bar

google-chromethemeswindows 7

I want to switch from firefox to chrome, but after having a black theme for so long it's hard to adjust.

Here's what I mean, notice the address bar is still white, even in a "black" theme in the Chrome version.

Firefox

Chrome

Is it possible to change the color from white to black? If yes, how?

To the person who says this isn't possible: WRAWNG!

It is possible in Win7, if you theme the OS itself, as chrome pulls those colors from windows. They are not hard coded and since my Win7 is all black with white text, so is my address bar.

The solution to this without installing add-ons is to modify userChrome.css.

If userChrome.css doesn't already exist in your profile/chrome/ folder (or if the chrome folder doesn't exist either) you have to create it:

<profile>/chrome/userChrome.css

Then add something like:

.autocomplete-richlistbox {
        background: #808080 !important;
        color: #000000 !important;
}

And restart Firefox.
