You're all "action-Jackson" this morning, aren't you Hope you get it done! (so I can see how it looks before I do it 
)
One thing: are you sure the ENTIRE headliner has to come off to take off the fin? Cuz there's a little panel there for access to third brake light - I was sorta hoping that it also allows access to the fin....

Black fin for sure Brett. Black skirts is an interesting idea.... Ixnay on the stripe. IMHO
Edit: Oops. Didn't read all the way down first...I see you've already decided on a white fin. A well....either one will look sharp.

what does everyone think of the thick black stripe running along the side of the car that was in the ps animated pic? I kinda like the one with the black roof and the thick strip down the side of the car but not on the trunk.

My Ride: Alpine White 2006 530Xi (SLD)
i am not entirely sure about it. i just called the shop and the guy told me the headliner has to come down. i didnt question him i just said ok. the time to do the fin he said would be more of a pain than the entire roof, he also said he could do the roof without a seam. so im pretty excited for a no seam gloss black roof with a the white fin.
you can't keep people hanging like this! Seriously!!!And I REALLY hope the entire headliner doesn't have to come off - I'm kind of concerned that they might mess smth up or smth...
Oh, related news: I went to a local shop today and got quoted $250 (with what felt like room for negotiation, if there's more than one person doing it) for alcantara wrapping of the steering wheel - takes a day to complete, gotta leave the car - they do it without taking of the steering wheel. I'm really thinking about this bc the original leather on mine is beginning to show it's age. At any rate, I thought you'd be interested in smth like this too...
