Made My Decision!

If you have extra you need to put the red vinal on the front bumper. Your right the color is close, but even in the pic we can see it's not an exact match. The red paint on the bumper is deaper and darker than the red vinal on the quarter panel. That little color differance is going to start REALLY bugging you as time goes on.

I know from experience, since after my front and rear bumpers were replaced and painted. In the sunlight they match exactly, but under certain light at night they look off. At first it didn't bug me, but now I REALLY notice it and it bugs the HELL out of me. On your car it will be even more noticable under all lighting conditions as the vinal will not refelect the light in the same way as clear-coated paint.

If you have the extra vinal take your bumper off and vinal the entire thing. That's the only way you'll have a close enough match that you won't notice the differance. If you don't have enough to do the whole bumper than integrate the vinal onto the bumper by the quarter panels. It could create a ghosted effect having the red vinal on red paint, and lead that in the red vinal on white paint.

Yeah..I hear what your saying.

The guy who's doing my work is screwing me over. We were supposed to finish yesterday..but he tells me..sorry..didn't think it would take this long..so i said no problem..tomm i will come in to finish..he says..yeah..we can finish..tommorow(Which is today)..well i called at 1pm..and someone piks up and they tell me he is not coming in today..I was like WTF..he told me he was to finish my s*** today..he said..i will call him up..so i wait till2pm..and he never calls back..so i call back the shop..and they say..he is coming in..and he will call me..well i called again at 4pm..and he still hasn't come in..it's bull s***..i am so pissed..so i called at 5pm..

And he is still not there..i am going to cancel the deal!(flame) (argh)

Matthew ... that tibby (and their other cars) are HUGE exceptions. When you see the car in person you honestly will crap in your pants -- its sick. I actually considered it.

yea it was ok, but just too busy for my tastes. quality was superb though, the car itself was just ugly. arent they prone to chipping however?

 

[Protege5Gurly]

Yea definitely busy ... but some of their other designs are soooo nice. Yes, it can chip, but so can paint.
