Yes. Although, typically automatic car washes aren't ideal in general to begin with, I would say the majority of my customers actually take their cars through automatic/machine car washes fairly often. It comes down to the materials and how the installation is done, which will help determine how well/long it'll hold up.

So I am currently in the process of developing a pre cut kit for the front grill. For those who posted before/after pictures in my thread, you will get priority when these come out. Shoot me a PM if you were interested and participated in my emblem overlay testing.
My question to you guys is, are there more people with the style grill posted in this first picture or second picture? Also, can someone tell me which cars/years each style of grill the cars came on?

Sorry for the delay, but finally got around to installing the film. Here are the before pictures:
This is the film
And here are the after pictures:
The installation is pretty straightforward and easy. I used the wet method and squeegee to install it to prevent any air bubbles. Since the emblem is slightly rounded, I had to use a hair dryer to heat it up otherwise it wouldn't lie flat. You'll notice in the before pictures, the emblem has a near mirror finish/look. The film has more of a wavy look, so you'll lose that mirror look. It's a very subtle difference and I doubt that a regular non-enthusiast would even notice.

I'd be interested in the overlay for the emblem and the grille along with the window trims.I can do before and after pics with everything together and individually as well.

I am going to message everyone who's posted on here. I had been away for several weeks doing wraps out of town, so that took up all of my time and I wasn't able to ship out any overlay pieces. If you don't get a PM from me, shoot me a message on here or e-mail me at Don@WannabeRacer.com if you were interested in an emblem overlay.
Thanks!

I have had lots of people contact me about other various pre cut pieces for their cars. At the moment, I only have the emblem overlay. If anyone is still interested in those, feel free to PM or e-mail me directly.
Thanks!
Thanks!
