Inject custom CSS into any website
CSS Inject Extension
The best part of this extension is that it has minimal permissions, which reduces the risk of this being malware or being used in a trojan horse attack. Basically other extensions that need to inject javascript onto the page can also track your browsing history. This doesn't, because I only ask for permissions at runtime. This leads to a more secure experience if the only thing you want to do is inejct CSS.
