Thank you guys. I wish they had an option like that from factory. It is now really more aggressive and nice.

Really well done. So once you had the vinyl laid down (like pic #5) how (and with what tools) did you cut the vinyl and get it tucked in and fit properly?

I used the razor knife to cut it and then plastic smoothing tool to smooth out the vinyl and tuck the vinyl under the metal and finally used heat gun to make it adhere. And just look like oem part

I got mine done at a vinyl shop because I didn't trust myself lol. I gotta admit, blacking out the chrome trim on the E93 makes it look like a different car. Best visual mod I ever did to be honest. Yours looks great!

What lip is that? And are you Jet Black or Jerez Black?

Definitely want to do this to my E93! Where did you get the vinyl? Would you recommend saving 5 hours and just having a tint shop do it?

looks badass. That stuff is definitely not the easiest to work with if you're not familiar with it.

I'm glad mine came with the black trim when I bought mine (from prev owner). Subtle but completely transforms the car. BMW finally smartened up and put shadowline trims on the f83's now.
