Mine ended up with a ton of bubbles. I suck. I took 2.5 hours and still screwed it up. Looks good from far... but far from good.

yea i was thinking about the spray paint....but just thinking if i wanted to take it off later i can just peel it off, then having to clean off the paint later....

yea i took my time and used a heat gun w/ water and soap mix, stretching the center and edges out.....the outside lights was a pain....

That is really nice. Good job.

Where can you buy these in NA? Sorry for the dumb question but I couldn't find a web site.
