Very cool especially with that color. Wonder if the photoshoppers could let us see what the other colors would look like.

I think it looks awesome...Good job

Did you see somewhere that had vinyl for this application or were you going to have vinyl custom made to fit?

Scrapppy666 · 10-21-2010, 12:24 PM

makes the v6 front end look so much better, nicely done!

franknbeans · 10-21-2010, 12:39 PM

how did you paint it? Spray can? Did you scuff the clear? Did you clear over it?

I'm afraid that once you go down the road for a week or two that this is going to chip real bad and start showing the yellow under it. Looks great, but I would have gone vinyl to help prevent the rock chips.

It was panted by a body shop. I know he put clear over it so hopefully that will help. I decided to go with paint after much consideration. If it gets nicked up then I made the wrong choice. Time will tell but for now I'm happy with the result.

Looks great!

One question who sells or makes that front spoiler? I can not find it. Thanks in advance.

I did mine with flat black vinyl and flat black Stillen spliter.

I'm hoping that the paint holds up and that it was the right choice. For the person above, here is a pic with my hockey stripe. I chose to take the solid black stripe off when I purchased the car as a matter of preference. As far as doing the back, I'm not sure yet but I do know that there is a pre-cut vinyl piece being sold. I have to think about that one. For Yellow2010 the GFX is package is sold through GM but I'm sure there are many others who sell it also. Thanks again.
