The pieces look amazing. Much better than most of the vinyl sticker work Ive seen. If there was a way to do it in my garage Id be all over it.
Love the guage pod and rear storage frame in particular.
Im going to attempt to vinyl wrap my ebrake cover next week.

I'm sure it's interesting to see how folks react to the work you've done on your car....but, it's not really important how THEY feel about it.

Now that it's almost done, how to you feel about it? [That's all that's important.]

Oh I love it , can't wait to get it out on the road . I'm in the stage of brakes , wheel wells & undercarriage now . I'm not going to do much of the Hydrographics there . Just a few pieces . It's mostly going to be clean up & paint .

The tub is a matte finish like all the rest of the outside trim . The " Y " brace is a gloss finish .
