Might do the pillars in gloss black vinyl.. what do you guys think?

(PS: if someone has better photoshop skills than me and would like to glossify my job, feel free.







Im sure people have done the pillars like this before, any one have pics/know where to find them?

Ive never had anything wrapped before, but I think the issue you would have with that would be that the vinyl will be cut mid way up the pillar. Meaning that at some point there will be a ledge where the vinyl will stop. Im not sure how strong the vinyl is or if that would start to pick up after time.

hmm, good point. If i did do the vinyl, i'd wrap it under the bottom panel edge and heat shrink it to the panel.. I may just do a coat of gloss plasti dip to see if I like the new lines.

Definitely put up pics of the result. This could be a very nice mod if it flows well with dark tint

I wrapped a Dash and the tops of the doors on a little Ford Pickup.It turned out very nice.If you use the Primer that they recommend it should go great.You can wrap it with vinyl that looks like Carbon fiber also.
