• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

Now with less white and more function.



Re: Now with more useless crap.

Vinyl looks good, I have tried and tried many times and always fail it. Flat surface none the less with contours. Are you using heat and stretch only, or some kind of quick tack solution and heat?
 
Re: Now with more useless crap.

Just a hairdryer or a heat gun (depends on what I'm wrapping)
Start from the middle and work your way out, heating up as you go. I try to not stretch any if I can help it.
 
Re: Now with more useless crap.

Just the wrap, heat, and time.

Easy, no. Not the 40th spoiler that is.

Any flat/broad surface is pretty easy, the more complex the curves/angles, the harder it gets. Took me right at 4 hours to do the spoiler.
 


Re: Now with more useless crap.

Haha, thanks. That means a lot Tek.

It's in a sort of sad state now. Filthy, driver door molding is off, lots of stone chips on the SD lip. Really need warmer weather so I can take care of all that.
 
Re: Now with more useless crap.

same here... taking my vinyl stripes. off and replacing passenger molding and hood and trunk from hail damage.

Re: Now with more useless crap.

I second Teks post. Pretty badass car man. Starting to work on mine. Just gonna be slow. Wish i knew where to find some grill inserts like yours.
 
Re: Now with more useless crap.

Thanks. Fixedwing1

So the car is back under the knife. Diagnosing multiple issues, but that should all be taken care of tonight/tomorrow.

Also getting a color change. While I really really liked the white, it WONT stay clean. Even with a super good detail and some CD2 (still have some, cause it's awesome) it'll be dirty after the first drive.

I'll post pics when I feel like it.
