or eric @ bumper plugs - you gotta get something like this!

I let my friend drive my car today while I followed him about in his e90. realized the car definitely could use that reflective S in the back . . .
Hi, good to hear your interest. Its always a good idea to see your car from another car's perspective..

Anyway i am not sure how i can help you cause you will use your existing 'S' as i said its a sticker. . Best thing i can do is mail you the sticker?

As for removal i dun see any complications.
just remove as you would remove anything. I seen this personally as the guy did twice before successfully applying it.

Maybe try looking bit more. If you really cant.. let me know i guess i can try to get a sample and mail to you

Reflective is not more permanant, it is just tougher to remove, since the reflecting properties of the vinyl are micro metallic pieces it does not come off in one peice. It "chips" off, So its still removable, it just takes a lot longer.
Hmm, that sounds not too bad. Any idea how much it would cost? I bet you could get a few orders off of 6speed if you were doing it (though I'm not sure if you'd be running afoul of sponsorship rules by doing so).

Yeah, I think we were hoping to get just the sticker, though it appears Lighthouse may be able to provide that domestically.

Curious - does the sticker "wrap" around the edges, or does it just cover the top portion?

I can check into the cost tomorrow, I have red reflective but i think i am low, so let me see. More importantly i would need someone to give me an exact measurement of what is needed seeing as i dont have an "s" emblem here. Top tip ofthe S to the bottom tip in millimeters would probably me most accurate. Pm me if you can get this info.

ok here goes correct me anyone if i'm wrong ok!! 1 inch = to 25.4 millimeters so with that being said without being stingy on the wrap the measurement vertically is about 2.5 inches and from horizontally about 4.5 inches. so in millimeters 63.5 by 114.3 millimeters. i know its more than we need but i rather have more to work with than not enough!!! i hope that help

Bro its wrap and hidden at the undersides..

basically only the area that is stuck to the car would not be wrapped.

Wow seems much hype on this, free promo for Lighhouse

We are actually already in LA and have been but my luxury car specialist is the one that we send all around the nation to handle this work. He is the best and specifically trained to handle these high end cars.

We just finalized Freds car and it looks amazing. There are close up pictures in our gallery as well as he posted a video on this site.

you will also see some of the Ferrari's we have done and Lamborghinis. We will be doing a GTR in a couple weeks and then a R8 not too long after. It is so exciting to see it when its done. My installer amazes me with the detailed work he puts into these projects.

I'm also curious as to how the sticker would be applied. Would the "S" have to be removed and then wrapped?
