I'm going to do my vette like the 2010 c6r Soon. The black spikes. I think doing the rear and front would be horrible. All else would be easy

I love the idea...I had the roof of my e39 M5 wrapper gloss black on a white car. Loved it.

Love the idea. My fear lies in the fact that I tried to wrap/tint a pair of tail lights one time and it was a nightmare and I gave up.

It would be cool to change up the color without the commitment of paint.

If you had trouble with lights, don't try this. Lol. But you could of had a bad technique. Research it, watch videos. Cookies 3m tips on YouTube is pretty good

That could have been the film. Vinyl application is MUCH easier. The adhesive in tail-light tint has to be clear, so it isnt the same technology thats on the back of the 1080 scotchprint vinyl wrap. The scotchprint is TOUGH to get bubbles in.

That would be cool, I wanted to go with 1960's Corvette racecars Le Mans white with double blue stripe livery. What were your costs on the vinyl?

The white was 450 on eBay and I offered 250 being sort of a smartass, and they took it. Paid 90 for 25 Feet of black. 80 of white. So 350$, then 20 For primer and 100 on knifeless tape, blades, ect
