FYI, just got your sample and metrorestyling's 3M-diNoc film. It's the same exact thing, metro's was twice as cheap. 36$ for 12x48inch shipped. ebay - metrorestyling or metrorestyling.com

How long did it take, and did you just use one sheet and lay it over the grill?

I understand that sometimes the cheaper is better, but in the end, it comes down to who you support and what services you get in return. Price Dumping is a low move, but I can't make you buy from me if you don't want to.

If it were me doing it, I would put a sheet over it and cut holes throughout.

How well does this stuff hold up under the hood? Specifically on the engine cover, intake tubes, etc?

That's a very good question. No one knows yet. I'm gonna try it out on my car and find out.
