just ask for whatever color u want plus mention u want no pinstripes and the vinyl to go all the way out to where the pinstripe would be

...it cost me 50 bucks shipped

they got lots of colors

just ask em

they werent aware i was using it for this

o well

So it already came with adhesive?

how does it feel to the touch, is it smooth?

I had mine wrapped in carbon fiber fabric, but I like that aluminum color much more actually

yep...

it does have the adhesive on it already



but u might want to buy some more for the corners just to be safe that they stick

the smoothness will depend on how well u r at applying it

the vinyl itself is smooth

but bubbles from install could make it a lil bumpy (just pop them with a needle and smooth it out)

im not a pro so theres a few lil bumps here and there

oh and if u want it to fit the best

ull need to remove the vent from the trim pieces

and trust me

:l

its no easy task
