IMHO the M6 looks 10x better than the Vette. It looks more natural and "flows" with the design of the car. The wrap on the Vette just looks sort of out of place. Idk, maybe it's the red wheels.

i don't get the whole matte black craze. matte black belongs on a 1938 ford coupe rat rod, not a newer vette/bmw/etc

Saw you at CnC. Looks good in person. I also saw the M6 (It was parked next to the SLS right?) It looks good too.

The bmw looks different, use a different vinyl?

The Corvette looks too flat, needs to be more of a satin black to not look like primer. My car looked sick when the epoxy primer was fresh, but now that the sun faded and flattened the satin to a flat it doesn't look near as good.
