Beautiful color. Did you not want the roof spoiler wrapped as well? Either way, I like the silver-black contrast.

My guess is that roof spoiler would be a PIA to wrap with the split and angles. I don't see how it could be done well without removing it and even then it'd most likely have to have seams.

thanks for the compliments...it turned out really nice...as far as cost, i had searched local wrap shops, and car forums and found hi recommendations for this shop, and the price was just shy of 150...as far as the spoiler is conncerned, it is much more difficult to do, and to do it right...so for now its silver...but i have ordered new primed mirror covers, to be painted...and then ill decide to do the rear spoiler or not...but for now it gives it some more depth....p.s.....fricken computer stopped working yesterday...so typing phones. borrowed computers for the time being..anyone know how to fix a " local area network cable unpluged"...huh??

Yeah it looks good and that's a good color. The pix make it look almost black so it's hard to tell. Only $150? That sounds pretty cheap to me. Can you remove it easily?

nice! I have the reef color as well, you are making me rethink my wheel color--I spent the most time debating silver or black there.
