I would like to be able to change the default CSS used by chrome, such as removing the underlines for links, etc. However, I cannot find the default CSS file used by Chrome. Does anyone know where it is?

If you are a developer, I recommend not to do this since it changes the default value of css. – Vdt Jun 1 '12 at 14:38

afaik it is not possible to tweak the UA css itself, but you can make a global userstyle: start Chrome once with --enable-user-stylesheet. This will create <user-data-dir>/<profile>/User StyleSheet/Custom.css which you can use (changes are propagated immediately). http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=2393

You can have a look at this discussion : Issue 2393: Support user stylesheet

At the very end they mention that the --enable-user-stylesheet parameter when starting Chrome would enable custom stylesheets..

The only solution I can think of it to use a Greasemonkey script that adds a style entry to every html page which turns off the underlines for links. Something like: 

<style> a {text-decoration:none} </style>

This article can apparently get you started:

I find it funny that I can't directly modify the CSS. Firefox has userChrome.css and userContent.css, which make modifying look and feel insanely simple. – George IV Oct 8 '09 at 20:17
@harrymc - I switched your <style> code from the blockquote to the code so that you don't have to worry about the "extra spaces" – Jared Harley Dec 23 '09 at 2:37
