Default Graphics Installed

I just got my car back today. I had Invisigard put on it and as long as they had it,,,,they played with some graphics. What do y'all think. To me it really helped break up the "Torch Red".

Are you happy with the invisigard installation? Can you notice it? What did you have covered and how much did it cost. I have a local estimate for $680 for a full kit (mirrors, head lights, hood, and nose cone).

I like the graphics on the hood but a little too busy for me on the side.

cheers

Don't forget about around the wheel wells with Invisigard.

I love the sides. I wonder how they look on yellow?
What are invisiguards? I take it is a clear decal???

I lost my cleartastic in a rainstorm on the throughway last week, looking for a better alternative. Do you mind me asking how much and who did the install?

I am not a stripe guy for the Vettes, but I think the hood stripe looks good, but the side stripe seems to bow outwards away from the BSM's and it looks funny, mind you that just might be camera angle. If you have some sort of clear plastic protector on your car, it really is invisible, even when I clicked on your pic to supersize it, I cannot even see a hint of film. Is it plastic? :cool: :cheers:

The Invisigard is on the hood, front bumber, headlights and around the wheel wells. All the places that "chip up". You cannont notice it. I'll take zoomed in pictures of the invisigard so y'all can see.

For some I do realize that I "killed" my car.. But is is my car an it was too much red. :smash: :cheers:

Like the hood, but not the sides.

Just my 2 cents.

I too like the hood stripe and am considering a side decal just a little more suttle. :cool: Where did you have the invisiguard installed in the area. I would like to get mine done in light of the stones they put on the roads up here. send me some info under seperate e-mail if possible.

Is Invisagard a clear tape product like 3M or is it a coating?

Thanks,

Since you asked, I do not like it all.

My opinion should not matter to you since it is your car. :)

I respect "don't like it"..

I just removed the door handle Fiber graphics. It looks better. The fuel door Graphic is next, but I need something there to break up that side of the car. IMO :cheers:
