be aware upon removal you will find out how good your paint job is. as good as the wrap primers are if you had a painter cut any corners on prep work and you will be repainting parts of your car.

As far as iknow it's never been painted. Don't see any signs of it. But I'm not using primer other than wheel wells. I am using the 3m sealer though.

1st impression it's ruining the "white" but obviously am a fan of the two tone look. maybe "better" once bumpers are white?

I assumed he was referring to the partial wrap of the headlight. Looks like it has potential. I have seen it done a few times, but only once did I think it looked good/well done. It's hard to tell without the bumper on to get the overall effect. I say go ahead and do both headlights, get the bumper on and then make a decision.

I think the headlight looks good! I've seen it done poorly but that looks good to me. Lose the fogs but I seldom use mine anyway. Nice job, more pics please!

Ya, the washer cover has to stay, and white it the only way to go if it's white underneath. Those things are so stupid.

Btw..about to do the louvers on the trunk.....I'm scared.

I knew this was going to be a *****, but this has been an insane amount of work and time. I don't even have the rear bumper and roof trimmed. No mirrors (no idea how to do those) no side scoops, no gutters, car is trashed in pieces. Tough job for anyone thinking about it.

Partial for me 2 but I had the roof then I unwrapped it, I felt it was 2 much on the yellow.
