Hey guys.. I just bought this tape called dynawerks M shadow. I wanted to get off the chrome trim off my car, but heard its kinda pricey to change it. This tape just cover the chrome trim but IMO i'm not really satisfied witht the result.. it's kinda hard to do. I get it from ebay, cost about $15 bucks plus shipping. It looks great from far though, when it is seen near.. you can see the tape was not been sticked well. I need some opinions/advices from you guys whether the tape should stay on it or not. Thanks!

naaaaah... doesn't look very nice.. How did you apply it.. I suppose you need to use some water with soap underneath it to get it really slick and without wrinkles..

If you try again, use a heat gun.... you can shrink the tape like window tint and apply it without bubbles.
