For shadow line - we ordered from them, DIY vinyls trims only but still need AK help to install.
For roof top which I found more skillful than shadow line. You may ask for William help which he did the CF mirror cover from film-x. Try to search that shop can do or not.
Some DIY thread as below,

Are you after the matte black roof or gloss black?
Personally i think the gloss black makes our car look better

I have heard you can burn out and using the heat it generated to soften the rubber, please try and let me know

film X offer the wrapping service, but they charge very high, almost same as the price you paint it.

Yeah i have spoken to BMW Shadowline and they have confirmed that they have vinyl sheets and if i order the shadowline trim rolls, i can get it with free shipping.
if any of you guys do want to order some rolls then let me know.
For the roof, i will go for glossy finish.

I'd like to order high gloss shadowline for my car, where to get this fitted? Does "AK" got stock of this? What is the total cost including extended to the black colour frame on the side mirrors?
Ricky posted the link for shadowline.... I am going to order enough for my roof and maybe the chrome trim around the windows. If you are interested, then perhaps we can order together and save on shipping....
Still looking for places to do the applying of vinyl though...
