Anyone interested in a set? I can make more if I get a few buyers.

 

[nick caceres]

is that vinyl or the real thing?

 

[Kevin Palmer]

Nice clean job on the instal....

 

[Josh Langel]

Nice idea, but seems out of place, IMO.

 

[brandon mena]

Yeah I know Josh. I'm adding some to the tailgate as well as part of an experiment. I have too much black right now and it clashes so I might not keep it up until I add more chrome.



Thanks Joe, it could have been alot better but I was rushing and didn't even bother to prep the surfaces, just trying different things.



Yes Nick it is a type of vinyl but very metallic. It's dosent form fit and has to be handled very precisely. Almost like a foil or very thin sheet aluminum. I think it looks very good though for what it is.



I f anyone has chrome or even polished wheels and maybe those door handle covers, this can be a great accenting piece. Just figured I'd share the idea and if anyone was interested I can make a set for them.

 

[Wes Davis]

Maybe make some plates that fit on your tie downs.

If that is vinyl then it is the diamond plate style vinyl which scratches very easily and doesn't conform real well since it's not cast vinyl. In the end it will peel. Not trying to burst your bubble but I work with that kind of vinyl all the time and I always have to tell my customers not to expect it to last that long with the winter months ahead.



Thanks,

SST

Is it only with the rough winters? I guess I'll be good then here in Miami.

 

[WXMotorSports DecalsPartsAccs]

Heat and cold will effect non-cast vinyl. Good luck cleaning off the sticky residue it leaves.

 

[brandon mena]

It's been on for 3 weeks now. No problems so far.



Oh and what residue?

Brandon,



Where did you buy the raw material?

 

[brandon mena]

No, it's a building next to a building I'm working on on SW 37th ave and 10th st. Big office building off of 8th st in that pic.



I got it from a guys shop. Are you interested in something?

 

[mookie]

Just interested in what type of store or shop it came from.
