Brushed aluminum trim modification
Hey guys,
I was wondering if there was a way to stain the brushed aluminum trim on our cars to make it a darker (gunmetal if not completely black). I like the texture and grain of the brushed aluminum finish but would prefer it be darker. Any insights would be much appreciated. TIA |

Lol if you've read my thread about my VANOS problems you will know that I now believe that there is no such thing as a BMW specialist, at least not with Z4s.

Back to OP's question. What about about a tinted "clear coat" layer sprayed on top? I have no idea if that would adhere well, but it's an idea. |
