Subtle Difference With Pics

Bought the Beltline black out tape from Outmotoring (great Co. to deal with BTW) it is subtle but I like it. The tape has a nice glossy finish and it looks OEM. So here are the photos.

Thanks, and no I was surprised how easy it was to put on, and I am not good at most DIY things. It was a hot day and I think that made it easier to go around the curved parts.

I did the same on my MINI. I have experience doing this type of thing though. Take your time. It's not to bad to apply. Personally I would rather paint them or Plastidip them. It looks good but if you get right up on it and look at it, I think it looks cheap. But from a distance its a good 12 bucks spent.

It looks good, does it come in individual parts for each break in the beltline?

Thanks, it came in one piece, and just cut it with a razor blade.
