maybe thats what the vinyl is called, but Frozen Grey is the actual OEM BMW color found on both the e92 m3 and e60 M5.

I personally like matte white.

Are there any issues with the removal of this film later? Can it lift the paint when removed?

I think this film is similar to clear bra films and the adhesive on a clear bra is very strong. I have been told by clear bra installers that there is always a risk of lifting pain upon removal especially if the pannel/bumper have been repainted or are not OEM paint. You may want to ask your installer.

It is true, it can lift up parts of the varnish! Gotta be careful with that... The only thing I donīt understand is why people do wrap their cars? Ok, in this case the guys knows somebody who does it and he gets it for 800$. Normally it costs the same as getting a respray, so why bother with stickers and not get it done properly?

I think the mat green makes it look like an army vehicle....
