I sprayed that... but it did pulled out. I will try again later after I figure out how to do it. When I sprayed the bird on the front bumper, it pulled off thefirst try. So I sprayed it again and used an exacto knife (hobby knife, box cutter, ect...) to LIGHTLY trace it out. I did use a tooth pick to get the stuff between the leters, and inside the letter A. I will post pics of the front one day, but it looks like everyone elses.

So...You applied it and by the way you pulled it off, it left the badges alone?

Is there a write up on using this stuff? I might be able to do the CETA Mod, Badges, and Sail Panels. That would be sick.

IMO the black spokes on the wheels clash horribly with white stripe on the hood. Too much going on.

The stripe is silver not white which goes with the lip of the wheel.I didn't have to use a knife on the car at all the ceta I just pulled the tape and nothing came off, the bird I tape around leaving nothing but the bird exposed and dipped it heavily real quick and removed the tape before it dried, the badge I did the same thing it cuts by itself.

Hence why I dislike the filters in instagram. What kind of phone? Photobucket should have an app that lets you quickly upload shots unmolested.
