xsx450 standard vinyl is really easy to work with. Just have a heat gun handy and you'll be able to mold the edges very easily. Make sure your center console has no flaws, they will show up right away. You have a blacked out X5, the piano black would look so nice on your ride. I am going to have my brother's trim painted rather than vinyled because he has cracks on 2 different wood pieces. Not only do we both hate the wood but there is damage. I have had trim painted on a few other cars and I loved the way it came out. I also had 3M silver carbon film and 3M brushed aluminum film and it was not too hard to manipulate. Since it has texture and thicker it goes over flaws nicely and hides them.
