looks great!

couple questions:

did you do this "in place" or removed from the car?

if removed, how? and how did you reattach?

thanks

scott

It was done in place. The plastidip was pretty easy but the vinyl took a try or four :-)

No masking just spray away. The plastidip peels off the paint :-) to get it out of the 'A' I took a qtip and cut it in half, at an angle, with some scissors. This left a nice soft point that I I used to rub the pdip off the paint in there.
