You know when I started watching this thread I was not sure I was going to like it. BUT I DO! I love your vision and the car is very tastefully done. I especially like black embossed hood. Well done!

Is this a base with a rear fender Z06 conversion?

Great job! I watch a kid wrap his Jeep Grand Cherokee. It was one helluva job, but came out really nice. A month later someone ran a red light and totalled it! So sad!

Wow! Amazing job and beautiful color. To the average person walking by it you would swear that was factory.

It's nice to be able to drive it your round out here in Arizona and not have to put it away!

The installer loves Cheetah wrap....I mentioned several other well known brands and he insisted on using this.

Nice! right on. I also am pretty intrigued by his approach to the front bumper. We've never done one that way but looking at it I feel like it makes a lot of sense. Might have to try that next time around. Killer look man, enjoy!

What he was able to do was pretty wild to me as usually things get sectioned...but like he said, he's been at this for decades.
