hey wazzuuuup where did you get the vinyl from and for how much? I'm getting the same thing done and could use a few pointers.
|
you want the flat black vinyl, hard to find but i got my buddy the deals with the stuff, you'll probably be looking at $30 for approx. 2 by 4 piece, let me know if you want it cause it would take me a couple days to get it
