The owner of this silver F10 528i sedan drove down from norcal / San Francisco to me in Orange County to have his window trim vinyl wrapped with my gloss black vinyl. Similar to what the shadowline trim would have looked like from the BMW factory. I took more close up pictures around the edges, corners, etc this time to show you guys in more detail of how the finished product looks.

Be nice to match the pillars as well.

That's true. I personally prefer the matte black finish on the window trim over the gloss black. However, the owner of this car just wanted something that was similar to the factory shadowline option.

Nice job Don,

But those wouldn't ever last in the Scandinavian winter, on salted roads and with solvant power washes.

I would think there has to be some form of vinyl used in your Scandinavian area. It's hard to think of an area completely void of any vinyl use at all, whether it be on cars or commercial buildings/vehicles/etc.
