Well no matter what it needs to be lowered. If the bcaps look like shit when they are black, who cares they are just bcaps. Oh yeah, and shadowline that thing!

I would suggest removing the trim per the second link. If you dont have much time and/or patience though you can paint it on the car. You need some fine grit sand paper(maybe like 1500), self etching primer, and SEM black trim paint. The black trim paint will be your friend you can use it for alot of things, so buy multiple cans.

Also you can use that shadowline tape from ebay, I've heard one good thing about it.
