Looks great.

 

How much did that cost?

Guy did it all for 250

I'm not a fan of black on black on black etc, but this one looks great.

I kinda like the chrome window trim, can go either way. But that chrome front bumper REALLY sticks out. Very nice job.

Looks great!!!

 

Can you show us a close up of the edges of the bumper?

 

What are your thoughts on how long it will hold up and will it need to be reapplied?

Jaws, do you know what brand the liquid vinyl was and/or if it's available to people who aren't a business/installer. I did some googling and saw liquid vinyl for painting house sidings, wasn't sure if it was the same stuff. It matches great, I've got 3m 1080 vinyl and it's almost a perfect match. I feel like this stuff may be easier to apply though. Do you know if they took the bumpers off to apply it? I've been holding off wrapping mine bc I feel like Its going to take a while to get the bumpers off.

they masked off the vehicle just like they were painting it for real, even sent me pictures of them doing that... here is a link for everyone of the product they use.

Oh, so they used plastidip and some glossifier I'm guessing? I couldn't get the link to work but am very familiar with the dip and the dipyourcar site. I thought you were talking about something completely different, I've got some cans of the dip and glossifier at the house now lol! Looks good though man! This is the first time I've experimented with the glossifier; when I previously used the dip a few years back, it wasn't available or even made yet. So far it seems to match pretty well and make the matte finish really pop. I'm liking your results for sure!

That is what a Carbon Edition SHOULD look like! Way to show GM what they should have done.

Oh. I was just guessing bc the link you posted took me to a broken link page on dipyourcar.
