No where near as much, OEM shadowline is about $200 for matte and $800 for gloss (M5 type). On BMW Sahdowline you can order the rolls you need (2"X30' is plenty) for about $20. Then labor should be a little more than that and no problem. I went with gloss black vinyl because i wanted a slightly different look than all the other 5ers out there and couldn't justify $800 for OEM gloss black with myself or my wife. Of course I managed to get the vinyl for free because my wife works for a printing company.
