JPK550i · 04-05-2019, 08:57 PM

I replaced the side markers and rear bumper reflectors with painted replacements from Ind Industries and am very pleased so I thought I'd share w y'all

I carbon fiber vinly wrapped my side markers but I left the red reflectors alone in the rear since I think it looks better to me. what did you do with the front reflectors? mine are wrapped black

Did you guys vinyl wrap your side markers yourselves? If so, how hard was it to do?

Very easy. I did mine twice. First was with black vinyl and the 2nd time was with 4d carbon vinyl. You just have to be careful removing the markers

It's pretty easy to wrap it. I would suggest getting a trim removal tool. Get some quality wrap and wrap it.

Attached photos of from the M5 but I also had it on my old 535i

I had a shop wrap my side markers and the chrome trim on the door handles and swap out the chrome 550i badges to black...

they charged me 200

which i thought was quite reasonable and it save me from cussing myself out for taking on a task that would require a level patience that I do not possess
