Buelligun (Post #29): Wouldn't it have been cheaper to start w/ white and change the top half?
Yep, it would have. But I started with a CGM car, then decided what I wanted to do. The shop asked me to just do a different color on the top because it would have been much easier for them. However, this is what I wanted and it gives me a layer of protection on the entire bottom half of the car. You don't get many door dings or scrapes on the roof or hood.
Chevy2tehBone (post #31): Life expectancy and a link?
Comes down to maintenance and how the car is treated for life span. The Camaro is my 2nd car, so it doesn't have to go out on bad weather days, that should extend the life alot. I see plenty of 15-20 year old trucks with vinyl decorations where the vinyl is still adhering but is faded and cracked. The painted surface on mine should out last those.
While I am not sure, I certainly expect it to still be looking good 7 years from now. And by then, I may want a whole new look. Who knows?

Thanks WhamSlam3. One small point...I didn't leave the spears white, I made them white by adding the paint wrap there. And then had the "304hp" cut out of the candy copper color and applied on top of that.
Yeah, 04Hemi I know what you mean. I took me a couple of months to decide to do this. Knowing I would be able to give up and peel it all off helped a little with making the commitment. But the idea of throwing away all of that money didn't sound good. I am thrilled with the results.
