I had my roof and rear bumper done at promax in Alhambra. I am pleased with the work.

Just had my rear bumper vinyl wrapped matt black ($100) and installed the S4play diffuser last week

I'm in AH and would love to meetup and have this done too. Part of me might even attempt this myself but to have it done right for ~$100 seems the better way to go.

I bought some cf vinyl for less than $20 so I figured I would give this a try myself. End result: meh. I would definitely recommend a professional install for vinyl. I'll leave mine on for a bit until I do it right, but there's a reason my pics isn't zoomed in up close haha.

There are blemishes and some creases and I think on white it's more noticeably than if I had a darker color. Overall I love the look but am not really pleased with my abilities.

^I'd highly recommend a professional doing it.
A group buy for a piece of vinyl? 0_o
Professional vinyl installers have a wired tape that can be applied on the contour of the rear bumper for a clean vinyl cut,
So if you're going to a professional either way to install, a pre-cut vinyl is not necessary.

I was kidding, but maybe ask a shop to do all our rear valences as a group buy could be possible.

I'm interested in having the wrap done right. Murrieta I am willing to drive to, even if it's just me and not a group.

The price seems to be at most $100 installed so if we can get a group we'd prob want something less than that.

But I am VERY interested in a professional vinyl installer!
