Autosol worked for me previously, dab on a microfibre working small areas with some pressure and it came up like new.

This where you can buy the vinyl for the DIY install.

Anyone bought the vinyl from this shop? Happy with it? Is it easy to use?

I did. It's best to apply it with the trims taken off the car. However, it's pretty soft that you can dent or mar the surface with a fingernail. I eventually bought the OEM shadowline trim which is under $250 a set for matte black.

Look at this thread if you want to take off the trim to apply the vinyl or replace it with the OEM ones.
