Came out awesome! I might do my exhaust tips too, still debating if I want to. The window trim was pretty interesting. On the edge of the rear of my trim it ripped when I tried to peel since there is little separation, I'm assuming you dipped them too. It didn't come out perfect the 2nd time but looks good enough for me. Makes it look so sleek with a black car.

Man this looks really good, may have to do mine soon. I think the stock wheels look really good IMO too with it lowered like that.

yea...used dip. Second car using it. It done right looks factory and holds up. Window trim is the trickiest as its best to do a wet pull of the tape vs letting it dry.
