Not that it hasn’t been done, but I am not aware of anybody who has changed all of their stainless trim to a black-out look by using vinyl.
I would be concerned about the vinyl edges remaining firmly attached; seems adhesion would certainly be a problem with the over the door drip-rail SS.

FWIW, a good friend had all the brightwork on his AMG Mercedes blacked out with vinyl wrap. The car lives outdoors and it still looks great after 6-7 years! He had it professionally done and has had no problems with edges peeling up.

Definitely the way to go in my opinion as opposed to ruining the beautiful stainless. The next owner/caretaker will thank you someday when they decide they want to return the car to it's original beauty. cool
