Congrats on getting those mirrors done. 3 sided convex surfaces like that are difficult.

Almost there with mine now. Bumper kicked my butt this weekend. Looks bad up close, but it will do for now. I just want the thing one color. Possibly will be fully brown for Cars and Coffee on Sunday.

Awesome! Coming together well. Thats how my mirrors are. I did them in 3 separate pieces and called it a day. I will be at C&C, I will probably have side skirts done then too

I will be redoing my brakes this summer as well.

Anyway, took this back to my parents house today so that I can bring it to my body shop guy on thursday. Took a couple more pictures, I think it looks better in natural light than in my apartment.

Don't worry about it not looking like it fits, its not taped on right now, just sitting on top.

Got a Canon t5i for Christmas and just treated myself to a 50mm f1.8 lens. I'm so motivated now to go out and shoot. So much more than when I only had a 20 year old camera.

I might need to upgrade, I have a couple dslr olympus E510s with a bunch of lenses. They still work great and really take great pictures, (especially since they are like 9 years old) but they are only 10mp... Im just dragging my feet because I dont use them like I used too and ive run out of cool things to photograph.



That little guys head is like pinky sized.. I like big lenses

I wish you luck in the front door corner area thing (Professional English). I did it in two pieces after it lifted up on me. I also did it on the car because I was in a rush, so you may have better luck

you mean the part like by the door sill? If so, I already plant o do it in 2 pieces, but we will see how it works out. It always applies nicely in my mind...

Yessir, the part closest to the door hinge in the sill area. And I know the feeling about everything going smoothly in your head.

Stopping spot for the night. Have 1 piece on the skirt, covers the lowest level of the skirt so I'm hoping the 2nd piece goes well tomorrow. It is also quite amazing how much abuse these skirts have seen. Ive driven on roads smoother than the finish on these skirts

I was going to wrap my roof the other day... Apparently wrap doesn't hide little imperfections very well because they showed right through the 3m

Luckily I did a test piece before I went with the big sheet... I would have been bummed losing the $55 piece.

Just about everything shows through the wrap unfortunately. And very sadly, wrapping my doors has actually over-emphasized my door dings.
