Excellent touch! Nuttin wasbtoppin da silver/platinum gs'! Great look wit dat simple subtle gloss blac!!k panoramic idea! Is one of the easier touches dat is def a contrast. I've been thinking of doin it on bother my cars; jus not so sure on the red one; because I love the color so Much! Don't wana go ova any of it, but since the wrap can be roved.Might be one of those things I'll go back and forth on.But love it.Keep it up with dem subtle upgrades.Them are what make great attributes without over the top fabrications but give dem his as big effective contrast w/o taking away from OEm!!!! *****

Gr8look!***** Thx for that add I wasn't sure how it look wit it on my 2nd Gen lex, but since i wasbgonna use vinyle could always interchange back and fourth. What brand did use and how u liked it. expect, but again did uuse wraptivo
.......I think it came out prrrfect, what did uvusbut since 2nd Gen is a shade diff, still not picturing if it will be a good mesh. So I would do the same gloss black for the panorama look and if get sik of it or dnt fit well will tear it off...But thx for post gives me a lil aspect on wat to expect.

Bumping an old thread! For those of you who wrapped it yourself, where did you get your vinyl and how much did it run you? How is it holding up so far? Any peeling?

I did my myself n have enuf material to do another one or 2. If you want to get the material and make it a DIY PM me and I'll sell you some of my extra. I bought it for my car and a buddies and he sold his. So I have it at the house. I did mine with a buddy and a 12 pack coors light n pizza came out great, just take your time n leave the vinyl in the sun to its warm n a little more flexible. Let me know!!
