Just put some matte black vinyl on my car (company names down the dorrs aswell as the matte black strip on the bottom) . Enjoy, let me know what you think.

wow that looks pretty clean, i especially like the bottom strip, too bad i got a black car, that wouldn't show up much on my car. maybe white will work out?

WONDERBOY · 03-24-2009, 08:38 PM

ya white ... or like a dark grey would be cool

Do people still put roll calls on their cars?

I was thinking the same thing.... it just creates a shopping list for would-be thieves.

Looks good man, not sure I like the gas cap sticker (unless it's real carbon fiber, in that case it's badass!!!) The decals on the side look very clean, especially the black strip. Be careful though, as Mike Merryfield would say, "It's like wearing a shirt that says I got $500 bucks in my pocket! / Thanks for the contents listing." Nice car nonetheless.

I wonder what the blue corolla would look like with a black front lip? I think that would be pretty sweet--kinda JDM-like-ish

Where did you get the black vinyl? Do you know if I could get a glossy one? Did you install it yourself. Good job BTW but i think the decals on the side are a little too much..otherwise it looks pretty clean.

I want to get a gloss black roof...so i need enough vinyl to do that..how much does the local shop charge for the amount of material needed to do it. AND can you get some for me and ship it? I would be happy to pay.

Also how did you put it on yourself (dry or wet method) did you use a heat gun and a squeegee wrapped in some soft cloth. How long did it take you to do?

umm if you like it props but not my taste

***mmasse*** · 03-25-2009, 10:33 AM

You could create a decal saying "This car is protected by Smith & Wesson" and hang some empty shotgun shells from your rear view mirror. That would probably discourage some thieves
