That looks fantastic.
If it is in the $4-5K range, how long does this last?

Also this was probably a good time to replace any old rubber trim I suppose?
Mine looks old and this might be the excuse to change that trim out.

I know KI Studios also has the headlight black trim rings in vinyl for less than the cost of going CF.

I thought you wrapped the lower mirror arm.
That is a nice subtle touch.

Congrats

Wow! I have no words.............. It's funny I have the same duck tail, gt3 front and same black wheels. But white car. The only thing should do is take off that front tag.

My car is garaged and is rarely parked outside so it should last the entire life of the car. My rubber trims were not replaced. I just used some Aerospace 303 and the exterior rubber looks great again.

Looks beautiful. Ae you happy with the quality? Can you tell it's a wrap? Also, how long are they supposed to last...if driven daily, inclement weather, etc.

I picked the 3M Intense Blue Gloss because of it's shine. In person, the vinyl is not quit as shiny as the painted pieces of the car (bumperettes, ducktail and side view mirrors). But unless you are really looking for it, you won't notice a difference between the shine of the painted pieces and the vinyl. Overall, I am pretty impressed with the gloss of the this vinyl.
