    I dig the ZR1 bumper, will you be adding a splitter to it as well? Satin orange will look awesome great choice.

    I have the splitter paint matched as well but may not add it as it may be too low. I’ve broken 3 splitters already and the zr1 one is a good bit lower

    Sorry to hear about the accident. Satin orange sounds like a good option if you’re dipping it again.

    That looked like it definitely peeled off easier than the vinyl wrap I peeled off the hood of the FJ a couple of years ago. Using a heat gun made it come off easier but in small strips, no heat gun would result in bigger strips, but very hard to get off. I guess the heat of the engine baked it on, there's no insulation pad underneath. Took me about 6 hours in the end. How long to peel the whole car?

    An hour or 2. Didn't really time it or rush. It would be faster without the clear coat


    I still have a little dip in a few edges and seams I have to deal with
