      Jeez everyone's a critic. I usually just peel them off but i got reprimanded so many times for doing that so i just began letting them grow out. Damn now you have me picking at them.


      I think i will put the tape on a couple more pieces and post up some more pics and possibly hold it up on the car to get the full effect.


      ***My whole reason behind doing this is because I am going to purchase some Grand Marquis Chrome rocker trims so i don't want the entire lower half of the car to look so blah and chrome colored. I wanted that to break up the chrome.*** Just food for thought.

          I didn't vote. Why?

          Cause I think you should go smooth on those rockers, kinda like I did on p79.

            Thats not an option, because of funds AND it protects the paint from rocks and such from where i live and park, although i heavily agree.

            I did a couple more!

              I think it'll look good. I'd have to see it on the car to really see. But I think it'll be okay.

                        I was thinking about that, but i do have a a bunch of things blacked out on the car (grille, headlight bezels, windows, tires ) that i think it will work.

                        I also just had a couple of rolls of :

                        and figured i should use some of it while it is still around. I also dont know of anywhere that sells brown vinyl like this with adhesive. Plus i was bored.
