I originally placed the sticker on the hood, but after seeing it was a 1/16th of an inch off I had it painted. I think the end result is much better and it was only $200 more than the sticker. The hood was then cleared and then one piece Xpel for entire hood.

Got mine from Mike at vettestripes. Had it installed today at the dealership when I took the car in for its 500 mile oil change. I think it looks bad azz.
