He said overlays. That means they put vinyl over the existing trim.

Sam Da Man · 10-28-2007, 07:39 PM

picus · 10-28-2007, 08:16 PM

I like it a lot.

etjandra · 10-28-2007, 08:21 PM

looks really nice...

10-28-2007, 08:28 PM

brandon is a really cool guy.... nice meeting you man; if anyone is interested in the black shadowline trim.... i highly recommend the vinyl (if you dont want to spend over $1k) and highly, highly recommend brandon to install it (of course, if thats ok with him).

brandon @ eas · 10-28-2007, 08:46 PM

Thanks Nico!
And for anyone else looking to do this mod, you cant just buy any black vinyl off ebay, some are lower quality and wont bend corners as well as others. Nico should have a link to the exact same stuff I used, that I got off of ebay. The stuff is almost like paint, because it is so thin, and flexible, but has amazing adhesion strength, and looks amazing

jimlai322 · 10-28-2007, 08:51 PM

Nico, please pm me the link. I want to black out my trim too.

oldaccount · 10-28-2007, 08:51 PM

any tips for doing this as a DIY?

also, any closeups around seams/edges, just to get an idea of how this may turn out, would be great.

Sam Da Man · 10-28-2007, 09:12 PM

true,

nico if you still have link to this vinyl please share, this install came out very good and looks awesome like a whole new trim..i deff wanna do this!!!!!

i had great luck using the vinyl from BigT (T is for Tony and he is very helpful). i had it applied by a local custom/tint shop...they charged me two hours of labor and it turned out great with only one small seam on each side.

that shit is sexy

AU335 · 10-28-2007, 11:11 PM

Man that looks good!!! I am definitely going this route. OEM replacement trim is way too expensive.

Is one roll of the vinyl enough? or do i need 2?
