It's just because.

If you're doing matte black, might as well do vinyl and save a shitload of money. Just my $.02

Think the e92 window trim material is different. It's more rigid

I justified $1300 for a new headliner and interior trim but $800 for a few exterior trim pieces, that is just stupid.

Group buy

Hey BMSe92, check out the regional forum for NJ. We started a group buy for vinyl work. $60 to vinyl your trim!!! Can't beat that. We actually need one more person to lock in the price.

Here's the link to the thread: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=249239
