Looks awesome. Having played around with the wrap on the lights, I appreciate how much patience is needed to get it right. Time well spent, I think.

Thanks, makes the car more mean i think. The wrap i had on first in the mock up could only be got in matt or gloss, matt was a no go and the gloss didn't seem to blend in with my black, it's hard to get vinyls to match a cars paint work, so the spray painting is the best to do with the dip first. Masking is a pain but it's worth it. Painters tape is the best , don't use masking tape it won't leave a clean line like the painters tape.

tberg, masking can be a great fun, yea right, saw your grill, once you get stuck in you won't mind doing it.
