Jake at Guardline gave it a noble effort but could not make the vinyl wrap stick well to the polyurethane splitter. So I dropped it off at Center Collision in Tacoma for painting. That was Wednesday. Yesterday they said after the second try there was still some "fish eye" in the paint. They are doing it a third time to make it perfect. I will pick it up Monday.

I'm learning that the flexible polyurethane material is just a bugger to get things to stick to it. I'm glad I didn't attempt the painting myself, and if there are problems later, I know Center Collision will take care of it.
