i wouldve loved to do it myself but unfortunately no time.. so my detailers waxed the car then the 2 of them applied the tape for me... took them from 930am til 4pm to detail the entire car and wrap it.. they did a really awesome job!

WOW! Incredible!! Looks like your ready to go.

Have to ask,, have you had it on the road yet? I'm curious if taping the wheels may throw the balance of those nice wheels off. I hope not.

Matte blue is the new carbon Fiber (which was the new matte black, for theses that are not following !)

Have a safe, nice and pleasant trip.
