I'd like to hear from somebody that has done the install as well. That can't be easy

C5Coup ...I can appreciate your apprehension installing the graphics but it really isn't brain surgery. It is tedious and you do need some patience but certainly can be one by the average CF member. If you follow my directions and pay attention to detail you can get it done in an afternoon with a buddy. The one seam in the middle is only visible up real close and virtually disappears when you are at eye level form a distance of 3 ft or more. The matte black is very forgiving and hides many sins of the installation. The results are very gratifying !!

If you e-mail me I will send you the installation directions. My distributor http://www.pfyc.com/ will have the product next week for sale and the instructions are provided. Go for it!

The vinyl is very nice and it's not gloss that would show it immediately. It's more of a satin black and is nice to work with. Like Stella said you just have to take your time. The hairdryer is a key piece of equipment to have while working with the product. I really like the effect.
