Hilden, I was hoping you could pm me or post some pictures of that piano black interior. Also was it hard to remove the trim? and how much did it cost to be painted and where did you get it done?

Dat's gangsta! J/k, looks cool man. How do you remove the outer tails? Do you need to remove the floor in the trunk or just the side panels? I'm looking to tint mine as well and will to the lid ones when I fit my S8 trunk lid.

Here are the before and after pics
Much better lightning in the after pic but still lifts the entire interior IMO. I paid some 200 bucks to my local car paint guy for filling of some minor damages and painting. Not too bad considering the number of parts and the amount of masking needed.
Replacement is simple, see the attached PDF. Just take your time and be careful.
Anyone in need of a set of trim I have my old one for sale.

Thanks, yeah it's a simple process so if it's your cup of tea it's easily done. And while I'm very happy with my result you could really get a sick deepness in the black if you give the paint shop a little more time than I did so they can add more layers of clear coat.
