Most place theses days are seeking customer satisfaction Be polite and TELL them to do it over in the right color.... and you will be happy, and brag them up...

Even if they are, that scale I linked to shows 4 colors darker....me thinks they are full of it

Yea I'm hoping it will al be taken care of. And what would y'all use I wanna get as close to blood red as I can and there laying on black. Can you even get a color like my engine cover in vinyl ?

Reaper1a · 11-06-2010, 11:31 AM

My guess would be burgundy....yes, I know that it's color splotch is darker than the pic of your engine cover, but vinyls seem to have the habit of looking a littler lighter once applied and in the sunlight

Either way, it's still a super dark red (like blood) and I doubt anybody with be that nit-picky about it

Reaper1a · 11-06-2010, 11:33 AM

Also, I don't know how serious you are about getting a perfect match, but if you want they will send you samples of all of their colors for you to compare. It will cost you $15 dollars, but if you're that intent on an exact match, I think it would be worth it.

JAB · 11-06-2010, 11:35 AM

Alright hope this proves my point a little better
the last one should really show you what im talking about lol

Thats bull cause here are two pieces I got from my local vinyl place. And both are alot darker than the color they put on your car.

13lade · 11-07-2010, 01:16 AM

The stripes look IOM to me. I think they look great, but you're the one that needs to be happy with it.... So stress to them how much you want to tell everyone how they did you right, and be cool with them. Usually that works best.

Sevn86 · 11-07-2010, 11:50 PM

So any new updates yet? What dealership did you go to?
