My solution would be to set up a chrome profile with the extensions you want/need and enable them to be active in incognito as well (I've uploaded some pictures to show the path Extensions-> Manage extensions -> Details)

Extension manager

Details

Allow in incognito

You can then pass some arguments as shown in the code below to start chromedriver in the profile you set up

source: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52394408/how-to-use-chrome-profile-in-selenium-webdriver-python-3

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options

options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument(r"--user-data-dir=C:\path\to\chrome\user\data") #e.g. 
C:\Users\You\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data
options.add_argument(r'--profile-directory=YourProfileDir') #e.g. Profile 3
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=r'C:\path\to\chromedriver.exe', 
chrome_options=options)
driver.get("https://www.google.co.in")

Hope this helped
