Default Wrapped my ISF Satin Black

I was really hesitant to dismantle my car to wrap it, I am glad I caved. I finished the car in 5 days and I made sure I did at least 3 panels a day (not easy after a long day at work). Honestly the Wald trunk spoiler and the rear bumper gave me the most grief otherwise it went very smoothly. I also painted my calipers highlighter yellow-green I think it contrasts the satin black nicely. With that said I took a lot of pictures and I am quite happy with how it turned out. Just to clarify this is not Matte Black (aka chalkboard/primer).
I'll get better pictures at some point.

Also as a side note, a few days ago I ordered a set of Novel headers!

The Result:

Are your calipers professionally done? Or did you paint them yourself?

Great work! I like the contrast with the satin black and the highlighter calipers. And Novel headers...Mr. Baller up in here! Can't wait to see it all together.

Excellent excellent job. That looks amazing and that color on the calipers is perfect. Also the novel purchase is exciting and can't wait to see pics and hear that car. Congrats and great work.
