anyone need vinyl trim?

cyphr · 08-18-2008, 02:23 PM

Update: After working on a member's window trim, we found that the vinyl is near impossible to work with in the temperatures that we see during winter. I apologize to those who have waited for this. Once the warmer weather in spring rolls around, I'll be more than happy to start offering services again.

If anyone is looking for someone to do their vinyl trim, I can do either matte black or gloss black. Those that have seen my car in person can attest that the quality is fantastic. I'll be doing it for $90 installed and the film I'm using is rated at 9 years (more durable than the 6yr film that most vendors sell, and more than adequate for New England winters).

I'll be back from Dec 22nd till the 18th of January. I'm located in the Waltham, MA area. Just trying to help out the New England community a bit more before I head back to Wisconsin!

A few people have asked about tinting their signal lights, I can do that as well for $40. That includes multiple base layers (4-8 depending on how dark you want it, mine has 6 for reference), 3 coats of clear, and wetsand and polish.

Here are a couple shots from my car:

Hey I recall meeting you at a meet. I had the only e46 there. I'd love to do it but I only come back from Hong Kong on the 28th. When do you come back to Boston again?

Hey bro, I'll be back from the day after Christmas until the end of January. I'll be more than happy to do it when I get back!

BTW, did you get those new rims you were looking for?

iceberq · 08-24-2008, 01:56 PM

cool it'll have to be near end of January, I go back home christmas & summer too.

I ended up refinishing the BBS CH wheels back to silver since two of them got curbed when parents were over visiting anyways. Those light weight wheels were tempting but I've been told to stop modding by the rents. They said stop modding so you can just get a new car instead in a few years

maybe there's an E92 in the future. I better get a good job so I can get the best E92 I can get

JeffL · 08-24-2008, 03:25 PM

Not too sure about installers in socal but I'm sure you'll get a much better response in the cali forum.

For those in the Boston area, I'll give you guys a heads up when I get back.

Hey guys, sorry for the late update.

After working with stevechan on the window trim, we found that the vinyl is near impossible to work with in the temperatures that we see during winter. I apologize to those who have waited for this. Once the warmer weather in spring rolls around, I'll be more than happy to start offering services again.
