    Vinyl trim wrap cost?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I was quoted $470 for wrapping window trim, top half of my mirrors and door handles. Does that sound like a fair price?
    TIA

    Make sure you go to a certified installer. A lot of cheaper guys will end up cutting into the chrome when working with the trim. Don’t ask me how I know. Lmao.

    true, and I called around town (chattanooga) and they asked if i minded the vinyl having seems. lol Of course I mind there being seems, I dont want to pay someone for something and have it look like I did it. Then I called Atlanta Custom Wraps. this place does from what I can tell a great job. but I thought the price was a little retail but was not sure.

    That maybe reasonable considering mirrors can be tricky. I was quoted 250, for the trim, alone.

    Can someone post some up-close photos showing how the wrap looks on the window trim? It seems it might not look as good as painting.

    I've considered buying the vinyl and doing it myself. How hard can it be for an area so small? If you mess it up, just buy more material. Locally, I can get the material for about $40 and do all the trim (so they say).

    I really prefer the look of no chrome around the windows. However, I like the std OEM look on the grill.

    Auto flex spray wrap is the way to go, You can polish the clear just like paint if it would ever scratch.

    I paid $300 the first time but now $429 since I moved and had to find a new shop.

    I had to remove mine recently when the car went in for some body work.

    My vinyl wrap chrome deletes started to peel back on some corners edges during a brutal northeast winter. If I were to do again, I’d go plastidip/autoflex instead at a shop that has done it before. Pretty sure price is cheaper than vinyl wrap.
