I am not to sure about the door trim but you are right about the flow of the design, I really just did it quick to show ppl, but eventually it will get rewrapped. Thanks buddy

Yes, $400 actually is really cheap when you have bimman.com selling covers for $450 and its nowhere near perfect. I remove every single piece that needs to be wrapped and wrap around them so everything looks clean. You wont find one imperfection on the wrapping. Will look OEM when I am done with it. Yes, I will reinstall everything and the price includes the material. PM me if your interested. Thanks

I think $400 is a great price considering it's a pain in the butt to remove the trim -- it takes great patience to not jack it up. Also, applying the wrap, heating it, stretching it, it's no bueno.

You get what you pay for right? Cheap, Fast, Quality. Pick 2.

Thanks Mike I appreciate it. In life you get exactly what you pay for. The labor included is actually harder than the actual wrapping. When I tell you, you will no find one imperfection on the wrapping, you just wont. I even thought $400 was a little to low.

$400 is actually a fair price. I watched my friend wrap my trims and it really takes some skills to do the job. It took several hours to finish and the result will prove that it's worth every cent.

Hey Man, def dont buy that Bavauto CF overlay you will regret it. I am actually doing PSe60's car tomorrow and he had purchased those overlays 2 years back and the fitment is so off along with other issues. Whenever your around the NY area just hit me up. I'll PM you my number. And yeah wrapping your laptop is very possible.
