So wait wait wait, I can't read 10 page of this... you actually had vinyl put over your car? Can you take it off?

lewvsal - thank you. material came from iboyds.net, extra work was done by socalsignworx in camarillo (they were putting graphics on a bike also.)

boostedwrx - pretty much all the info was on the first page... but yes, i put vinyl on my car, and yes it comes off (protects the paint). its made for vehicles (just like advertising wraps)

MIVEC 4G63 and evogoalie- i believe they ship tomorrow... i hope to get them by monday. new pics to come as soon as they are on.

Report back in 6 months after the sun fades it and there are wash lines everywhere in it.

I think it looks pretty good right now... but vinyl is so soft man... it's not going to hold up very long at all.

Good vinyl is resistant to fading and if you wash the car correctly there won't be any "wash lines".

HybridKOOP - i think its too thin to have to worry about wash lines and im not really worried about fading since its matte. but its supposed to last 8 years (and dont really care if it does or not since i can take it off easier than it went on) but i dont see keeping it for more than say 2.
ive been paying closer attention to vehicles with advertising and they all seem to be doing good.
