Other fender finished.


Working on trunk. This panel needs a lot of stretching to do in one piece.

There is techniques to remove the film that make it not that bad. Also the matte film has a less aggressive adhesive than the standard clear which makes it even easier.

Paint protection film (clear bra) is about double the cost of a vinyl wrap. The film is quite pricey, takes longer to install, greater skill needed, protects the paint better, and the film will last longer than vinyl.
