I came across this website and was wondering if anybody else has used it before. I want to do the shadowline mod to my car but heard that the oem shadowline parts are very expensive and that installation is hard. This site has a "stick on" replacement and was hoping somebody on here experimented with this product. I don't want it to end up looking cheap and tacky, but the pictures under the gallery section look official. Someone please fill me in on this.

here is the site

I have 2 words for you....STAY AWAY!

I bought this stuff trying to save some cash. It is quite possibly the most difficult material I've ever worked with. I ended up just going OEM shadowline, and frankly couldn't be happier. Safe your time and money and go with shadowline. There is a perfect DYI for this using the search option. PM me if you want more detail.
