- front emblem was designed to replicate the Black Pearl for $110 cheaper
- side mirrors

Did you take the window rim off the car to wrap?

Hate to admit it, but I had it professionally done. I was referred to a local guy by some friends. Unfortunately I'm not sure how he did the window trim but I assume he pulled the rim back to tuck the vinyl. As for the front logo, it took 3 attempts to get it right. He originally laid 20% film/tint (but it was too dark). Then he laid 50% film (but it appeared bronze in certain light). What you see now is a full black vinyl circle with an embossed graphite "L" logo over it. He laid 2 "L's" over top of eachother to create the look of a raised logo.
