Wow, that's car looks amazing! Great job!!

Maybe a dumb question, but where did you get the carbon fiber vinyl from? How hard was it to put on?

Man I wish I had bought black.

Thanks for all the compliments! I was going to get wheels for my 06 but decided to just replace the whole car! I will wait for the tires to wear out and then get something different. As for the vinyl it came from a local sign shop and it wasn't as easy as regular vinyl put with some patience anything is possible. The Carbon Fiber was somewhat metallic type vinyl so it doesnt bend and stretch as well.

You can get precut vinyl.

I have the precut vinyl but it bubbles some times and doesnt cover 100% of the lens. Can't wait for GT Styling to come out with covers!

Looks great! I like the subtle mods, kinda like what Chip Foose does.

I wish I could do more mods like Chip Foose. Mine are just quick and cheap appearance mods. Im just a poor 30 yr old white man trying to make it.
