Whats the going rate to wrap a roof and chrome window trim?

I have an alpine white 335i. Looking to get the roof, shark fin and chrome windown trim wrapped in either gloss black or matte black. I will soon have ICONZ wheels with gloss black centers, so I thought gloss black wrap would match the wheels. Does anyone know what the approximate going price is to have this done at a shop? thanks everyone...

Every shop will be different.

If you can, do it yourself. The window trim can be painted with plasti-dip and you can buy the wrap for the roof yourself.

There's a DIY for the roof wrap. It's not difficult u jut need to be patient and have another person hold the other side of the vinyl.

As for the trim. Plasti dips works wonders

I really like it. I wish I would have went with 18" instead of 19". I really want to run Drag Radials as DD but they don't make 19" DR. I like the stock 18" powder coated black. I would run some H&R Race on 18".
