The vinyl wouldn't necessarily be cheap looking if it's done right. But it can be very cheap looking if done wrong. The problem with vinyl is matching it to the color of your car.

So what are these companies?

Anyone have anything to say about the vinyl? Sounds like it'd be cheap looking - a sticker.

+1...they do look good if done right...but IMO the obsidon and SGM cars can pull it off better.

For a idea as to how it should look (eyeliner), Mercedes has done a good job on C-class's.
