I purchased black vinyl to cover my chrome window surrounds.

Ordered and paid: May 2
Shipped: May 13

Received: May 20
I sent an email on May 15 inquiring where my order was - no reply.

Shipping Charge: $12.95 (to Canada)
Actual shipping cost: $2.65

The product is a roll of black tape. No application instructions or tips.

I suggest you purchase this instead from a sign shop.

It's like maybe 2" thick, right? I purchased that last year and found that it wouldn't adhere to the aluminum well enough last for any amount of time.
Ended up going with whatever brand was recommended to me by a local trim/pinstripe installer in the local area.

It was hard to get in contact with him. took close to 2 business weeks to get the parts to my door. It is a long 3" wide strip of vinyl. It worked fine for me but rather difficult to manuver around the rear curve.
