These things run 2k-5k depending on the size of the car and have to be installed by a 3M dealer.

What's the point? Any advantages over paint?

cost, and the fact that you can change it a whole lot easier than paint. there is also less risk in doing permanent damage to the metal.

It's in the window at the shop behind the car, and the car is left hand drive... Don't that make it USDM? Or do they drive on the right side of the road in parts of Europe?


Pretty cool about the paint thing though!

 

[AWDTerror]

could be anything, could be military personel or just someone from the states who decided for what ever reason to move overseas.

 

[jeg0024]

Yeah, I guess so. But why not buy a German BMW? lol

 

[AWDTerror]

that way he can bring it back to the US

 

[justanothermp5]

this would be great for someone painting there car to see what it looked like before hand

kinda expensive though so it would be pointless to do this AND paint the car

 

[GhostMercury]

I would def get this done. It would prevent chips and scratches. and you could do any color you want
