@Dre C Can you feel the edge where the black meets the factory CMG paint? Specifically around the rear window on the bottom edge where it kind of lands on the rear fenders.

Nope, that's one thing I was worried about. It's super clean job. The top of the hatch (engine glass) has a little bit but nothing significant.

Looks pretty cool.

However... I'm not a fan of the black running under the side window though. Its creates an awkward line where it comes back up IMHO.

I actually really like the two tone look of the HTC...

That’s not “2 tone”.

I’m flattered. You should do the side mirrors.

@Dre C what? You will always be able to feel an edge where the wrap ends in the middle of the panel. There's no two ways about it. Under the drivers window all the way to the rear you can feel that edge. The ONLY way to avoid it is to do paint and clear.

I can feel the edge of my roof wrap all the way around wherever it meets the paint in the middle of a panel.

I agree with you on this. This is what I went with.
