A Grand Illusion
I bought the front Illusion Vinyl graphic from forum vendor PFYC and installed it today. Here's a picture of the result...
Though relatively simple to install I did have one problem. I found it difficult to apply the vinyl without getting air bubbles and wrinkles. I smoothed out all that are visible however some still remain. They are not visible unless you are lying on your back under the car. But who other than me would do that???
Oh, one more thing; big thanks to PFYC for the excellent service.

Hey RR! 
Sounds like the vinyl was easier to do than when you painted the read facia exhasut area.
Great looking mod! I'm still waiting to see if someone does the black the vinyl on a black car.
Hows' that beast of yours running?
