Looks great! i bought the matte black from Karbonwerke 2 wks ago and still too lazy to put it on my e92.

There was a couple of "dyi" I found (not the same roll/vinyl) that might help:

very nice, how do you do it though? what kind of adhesive would i use? i'm thinking maybe the same adhesive (3M Super 77) that I used for doing the Carbon Fiber interior trim wrap but that seems VERY sticky and I would the option to remove the vinyl later on if I change my mind.

Actually it has adhesive already on the vinyl. You just have to pull the backing off and apply it around the trim. The vinyl is stretchable and works well with a blowdryer/heat gun to make it even more pliable.

yup, its very easily removable too. just rip it off and wipe the area and you're good to go!

complete the look by painting the door pillars and the mirror surrounds - than it looks like it came from factory! but i know that pillars are expensive to buy in gloss.

Nice work. I wonder how long the vinyl will stay on your car through harsh weather conditions and time.
