Door card and trim re-styling

BMW 420i · 11-11-2013, 11:56 PM

Deliberated changing things for a long time and finally went ahead with it. I used the Duplicolor vinyl dye on the door card and painted a custom design over my wood trim. The colour is actually more of a burgundy than my phone cam shows.

I like it for its uniqueness and tastefulness.

lmk how it holds up. I used that on my old car to convert to black. it was "okay"

SEM vinyl dye seems to be a lot better in my experience.
