Although you cannot see it in the photos, the metallic flakes still show surprisingly well in the sunlight. I had some apprehension before the stealth ppf was applied, however, when I saw the finished product, I was not disappointed. At the end of the day, it's all about personal preference. I appreciate the dialogue.

Best Regards!

Agreed - looks like somebody sanded the paint. Not getting the matte thing.

That's why I asked, a lot of stuff does not show up in photos.

Guys, after seeing the Rose and the White C7's, I'm really digging the Stealth/Satin wrap!

Sorry to ask, but on the first page photos, I can see white lines appearing where the panels join and around the lights. Is that just reflection or issues when cutting the wrap? Just curious...
