Which product did you use ? Did you do it yourself ?

No, it was full polish, paint correction and ceramic coating applied by the body shop. I'll ask what they used. I expect something decent since they usually deal with things like GT3RS's etc.

Overall extremely happy with the results.
Knee trim was a pain to wrap due to tight spaces by cup holder and arm rest. Will most likely need to take apart the arm rest to wrap properly.

very nice!

Haha. You must know me!!

I'm not a huge fan of the contrast, most of my wheels have been brushed so these likely will be too. I'm sure Kws are in the cards soon too

Tried to salvage watever wasted material that dripped off the other side and then brought it to the other bracket. The side that had more black material hardened up nice, i ended up drilling holes in the bottomof the splitter and driving some 2.75 inch screws through into the bumper. It feels pretty fucking solid, will it hold? We shall see, all in all another lesson learned lmfao
