It took about 3 hrs to install them. I had a company that installs Clearbra put them on for me. (They only charged me $125)

Thanks for posting this. That is exactly the "color" I was considering for my Pewter coupe!! I was going to paint but nice to know there is this choice....plus the pinstripe edge....very nice. NOW I know what it looks like!

Thanks again
G

ps.....what about the back?

They show the back application at their website. This looks like a Christmas present to myself perhaps.....

Looks good, did you run them to the back of the car or just the hood?

Same here, when I hear stripes I expect the worst. Those are great though, good choice/execution.
