I'm in the process of doing it to my car as I write this. Have gotten most of the front paint off, now just gotta get the rest of the sides and a few stragglers left over.
So bloody easy to do, and looks so great!

Completed it yesterday - looks fantastic, "big pimpin"!
No need for pics, mine is the same colour as the original post. :-)
I do love the reflection of the sun in it.

I realized though that its really hard to take to much off. I took al I could off first then I detailed it with some bug and tar remover and that did the finishing great thanks gato!! and let me know when u wana sell those whels

did my 2002 gs430 grill today
Ok, I did it. It was hard though. I used a screw driver and my old tooth brush. It worked pretty good with the toothbrush. Didn't get everything off yet cuz I had other things to do, so Ill finish it tomorrow. but here's what i have so far.

In japan, when you're a begginer driver, you put that on your car. its like some "JDM" thing down here though. My mom sent me some to sell and I had some left over so I decided to put it on. =)
