I am about to order the gloss black trim for my '17 Caviar from http://shadowlinetrim.com/

I think it will look just fine as there is some black (pillars) around the window already.

Have you ever applied vinyl trim like that before? I purchased this for another car and it was incredibly hard for me to apply around the curves. Also cutting properly is difficult. I ended up giving up and ordering black trim for my bmw at the time. Let us know your experience, I did mine in plastidip.

Yes, I ordered this same vinyl for my 2012 Acura TL and it worked out great. I was able to move it around the curves pretty easily and without a heat gun. I hope I have the same experience this time around. I will keep everyone posted.
