LOL Well my wife works for a printing company so (since Don Ngyuen never emailed me back) I asked her to grab me some gloss black vinyl from her work. Then I removed the trim, stripped off all the paint and smoothed it out, then SLOWLY applied the vinyl and tucked it in the creases then just used a hair dryer to tighten it up. There will always be bubbles, but a needle and time will take care of them (I asked the vinyl installer at my wife's job)
Thanks bro
