Vinyl on Plastic

Does anyone know of a good way to have vinyl stick to the black plastic? I am thinking of getting stripes that TULS has on his car and want to apply the vinyl on the lower part of the front bumper and back bumper that is the black plastic. Any suggestions or ideas?

the texture on those moldings (I believe) repel adhesives so you'll
probably need to prime it first...(adhesion promotor, then primer,
sand, put your vinyl on).

My professional suggestion. Paint it. If you have never put any tire stuff or armor all on it that part to make it shine than you might have a chance with the vinyl. I've attempted vinyl on those pieces a few times with only one success.

I will be happy to sell you the vinyl you need though

Good luck.

You'll likely have to prep & then paint the trim to get the vinyl to stay.
