I think its called the 3m di-NOC. So far I love this stuff. Its very easy to use and it looks great! I will take more pics when I actually finish it and get it on the beast. Let me know what you guys think.

That looks sweet! I may need some to cover up a brand new scratch on my splitter (don't ask)

Where did you get yours?

Thanks for the comments. I'm planning on doing the rear diffuser too. I got it from carbonfibergear.com. I think godfather sells it too.

That looks sexy! Funny, tonight I was thinking about offering that service to people, if they didn't want to do it themselves, to send me their grills and I would do it for them
We sell ours for the same price, but when cutting it, I usually give a bit more, so 12" may be 13 or 14 etc.

Here's the thread if you guys are interested in purchasing some. I have a few sample sheets available for $10 each if you wanna see what it's like. I JUST sold out of my stock 30 minutes ago but Monday I'm ordering some more.

Let me know guys!

They eBay stuff is not 3m. We've all bought cheap packaging tape before, and the 3M scotch stuff... IF you're looking for longevity and good quality, 3M is the only way to go IMO.

No, the question is who is gonna line-x their bonnet. Oh nevermind, it's been done already. LOL

E55 w/ goods, Z32 Project underway
That looks great! My only concern would be any peeling issues down the line and closeup details, lines, gaps, etc.
