Can you easily tell it's vinyl, or does it actually look like paint?

Also how long is it supposed to last?
my girlfriend got it for me for x-mas...I would hafto ask her

Looks good! x2 on the whistler mod and side molding removal. They come off easy..the glue is a bitch though. Hair dryer might help along with some adhesive remover. I just rubbed all mine off with my thumb..lol

Looks great. Don't do the berger panel.

Let me know when you get tint and what % you get. I need to get some as well.

I hate to be the negative one here, but I used to work a vinyl shop for a while... The driver side seems a little crooked/unstraight

But other than that..good choice!

yah, that side the outer stripe peeled off when I was taking the backing off the decal so I had to put the stripe down simply by my eye.
