LOL, mine's been on for over a year. Still get compliments on it. Wanted to wrap the whole car, but having to have a seem down the middle of the hood scared me off.

Is it just for looks or does it serve a purpose?

I've been thinking about this on my '91. Not sure about carbon or Black on a red car. Also are there flat carbon vinyl and glossy carbon vinyl?

I'd love to see more pictures of Vettes with the vinyled roof and halo.
