I'll be working on it today so update pics will come. So far I have sanded the bird/wording off, several coats of VHT, and more sanding. I'll be applying several more coats of VHT and then sanding smooth so the vinyl will appear painted on (like graphics on a motorcycle tank) followed by matte clear to match my taillights

Lemme know what you think

 

Sweet!

 

more VHT

 

that looks good

 

That is awesome!!!

 

Looks good but it really need to be wetsanded and buffed.

 

It does look good, but I've been in the Marine Corps for 7 years, and I wouldn't put that on my car. lol

 

That looks really nice. Way to do something different and support the Marines

 

Blocked and wet sanded to give texture and a three dimentional look

 

Looks good. Def different and eye catching

 

Moto! I like anything Marine Corps! Rah!

 

Almost done - matte clear applied last night, I also blocked my 'new' taillights and cleared them so everything will match. I'm leaving them out in the 104deg heat to 'bake' today and will take pics of everything this afternoon

angled shot to show matte clear and how flush the vinyl is with the VHT

 

that last pic looks really nice good job

 

Great job on that filler panel. that looks kick ***!

 

very nice! creative!!

 

Finished... for now I think

For some odd reason, despite being prepped and sprayed the same way, at the same time, the center piece came out with a bit more gloss than the tails... I think a few washes and a few days in the sun, they'll even out.

Also, before anyone suggests otherwise, I purposely used a matte/satin clear. I want little to no shine, just to be different

That said...







...pics on the car with my custom harness *maybe* tomorrow

 

Now make me an Army one!

 

I'm more of a gloss guy, but that still looks amazing. Great idea and very nice work.

 

UnVMySS, shoot me a PM if you're serious and we'll work something out...

 

Oh I was being sarcastic, bit it is nice. O have a camaro... no filler panel anyhow. Nice job though!
