I tried the doing the trim with the tape
trust me it dosent look all that good.
I mean it turned out pretty good but
you cant get it completely perfect.
Its worth getting the Shadow trim.

I personally like the chrome grill since my car is black it outlines the window area nicely. also my windows are tinted so it looks good.
