1LE matte side view mirrors
Tried my hand at vinyl wrapping and figured, what the heck, start with the hard stuff!
I know that I probably should have pre stretched the vinyl but I only had two hands. It still turned out alright for a novice, and I think it adds a nice touch to the 1LE "look". What do you think?

Looks nice. How did you get it to match the hood?

It's just 3M 1080 series matte black m12(i think that means 12mil?). The hood is 3m vinyl, too, and I doubt they have different shades of matte black? Regardless, it seems to match up pretty well!
It was $20 shipped for a 5ftx1ft roll on Amazon.

I have to admit that it was someone on here that suggested it. I just took his advice!

Looks good, but I would wrap the rest of the mirror too.

I thought about that, but the seam between the two pieces would probably be hard to hide all the silver, and wrapping all the way around and tucked in behind the mirror would prove quite difficult without removing the mirror housing entirely, at which point I might just be better off plasti-dipping, or doing a carbon-fiber hydro dip. And if I hydro-dipped them then I'd have to do the air extractor on the hood while I was at it, and then it just wouldn't look right unless the grill was carbon fiber, and then...
