thats ok just peel the hood, and lay a fresh piece of tape. bet its cheaper than a paint job. plus if you dont like the color, a pull here, some windex there. presto! original color.

i'll take one in red carbon fiber, please!

Its just vinyl wrap just like you see companies doing to their trucks/vans. That shit isnt cheap tho. I bet to do a whole car in a solid color like that, material and labor is like $1500-$2000. Yeah its cheaper than a paint job, but still.

i wouldn't be surprised if it did since they make those rock protection film out of a similar material.

thats kind of neat, you would save alot of $$ when u buy aftermarket parts and u dont have to get them painted.

That shit is harder to apply than you would think. Those guys did a good job on that, i wonder how long it took.

The only thing about that stuff is that you cant really get it to shine like a paint can.. you cant buff it or wax it or anything.

I was also wondering about how much it would shine. When you see them use this stuff for ads on vans it always looks kind of dull.

Id do my car white and velcro a sharpie to the hood and write "Feel free" and an arrow pointing to the sharpie hah. Wonder what all would get written on my car.

and how many cops you can avoid if u pull in a garage and peel it off really quick
