PICS: My "one-off" 3D vinyl transformation on my 1LE - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

SUKXOST · 10-18-2013, 04:18 PM

FOLLOW THE STORY WITH THE PICS AS YOU SCROLL:

So.....due to something out of my control....I had to remove my OEM vinyl wrap. I love the look of the OEM matte black vinyl on white:

But it needed more, so......I added THESE within weeks of delivery(from Roger @ emblempros.com):

That brings us to the issue that required the vinyl removal.....SO removal of said badges and OEM vinyl:

...to get a fresh canvas:

After a couple days of thought I came up with an idea and ran with it....here is the process and final result:
Used my template:

Sketched in a location and size to keep proportions of the "1LE":

Taped in place for installer and laid down the "1LE":

This is the FIRST part of the final product: (keep scrolling though...theres MORE)

That wasn't enough....THIS was my final vision: Satin vinyl OVER the "1LE" lettering to leave just a subtle hint on the hood:

Then completed trimming for a final look:

More pics added per PM requests:
Another look at the Satin vinly over the lettering:

Close up of lettering height:

Difference between matte and satin vinyls: (removed OEM balled up LOL) - you can see the satin has a mild gloss to it:

My opinion went from "kill it with fire" to "I need that" in one set of pictures. Very nice.

Casperadub70 · 10-18-2013, 04:25 PM

Damn, that is over the top creative! Well done. Unique.

Now that's outside the box and I like it. Maybe we will meet at another event and I can see it in person.

I thought so myself, thanks. I've never seen this anywhere although I'm sure it's been done as it seems easy ond obvious....nonetheless, I'm thrilled with it!
