Where can I buy the vinyl tape to do the shadowline trim. I hear that it is supposed to be stickier than electric tape?

Senza -
Do the Shadow Line Trim from Gary @ BMW Newport. This is most definitley the way to go
Your car is way too nice to use shotcuts.
Its an easy mod to install - and it is a real transformation.

I used the shadowline vinyl over the chrome as well. Put it on last year and still looks like new and is holding up perfectly through 1.5 winters. Can't beat it for ~$20!
For those interested I got it from this dude on ebay:
