me & my buddy wrapped them ourselves at his shop during some downtime.
if you have the ability & knowledge to do it yourself then it is a great mod. but if you had to pay someone or a shop 2-3 hours of labor then you might as well just buy OEM trims.
just my $0.02

Great, so the guy knows what he's talking about! i think i'm going with Glossy! Matte in my opinion might look too much like plastic..my car is Saphire black so i hope the glossy doesn't clash

"great it looks like u removed ur chrome pieces and applied thicker weather stripping"
:l
...that comment and my pillars now being gloosy has motivated me to change it to glossy
