Wow, Inspired!

I would personally paint it, just looks better. But if money is an issue overlay works. But if not laid down right it will bubble up.

I like it a lot.
But even if I manage to install it, I'll be worried how to remove it...
Sooner or later it will get faded and damaged.
plus outside 3M film is way more expensive than that.

[Punks_Not_Dead5]

From what i have heard it peels off just like window tint.

I agree @ fading. That's why i went with paint. Cost extra because of the premium Lexus paint but well worth it

how much did it cost you to paint it btw ^?

[Punks_Not_Dead5]

1200 for the hood, new front bumper(and paint) painted the grille as well. Wasn't in an accident, just lots of rock chips etc.

Well 200 of that was for a professional detail. So for the paint 1000.00 and most of that cost was for the Lexus Obsidian paint. It is a pearl so it is a 3 step process.

I want to do a white CF wrap on mine, just to help against the elements. I think it looks nice but that is rather on the cheap side for 3M.

[Punks_Not_Dead5]

Look into the Dinoc(sp) carbon wrap. It is very very expensive, but looks amazing!

I heard my name...

[Kycamrymaker]

^^I was beginning to wonder when you were going to chime in. Did you DIY that or pay to have it all done?

[Punks_Not_Dead5]

Shark fin should be black as well IMO
