Just finished my chrome delete and window tint!

Thanks guys!!

The carbon is from Vivvid and has the best texture and shine I've seen:
ViVVid Carbon

The gloss black is from Avery:
Avery Gloss Black

I also used a gloss black from ViVVid but would not recommend. Its thicker than Avery and the air release texture is more pronounced once the vinyl is stuck down.

Thanks for the info!

What size did you buy?/How much vinyl did you get?

Specifically the Avery Gloss Black.
 
Finally got around to making the video! Ask me anything. (Video still processing and will be full 1080p resolution in a few hours)

- Front Emblem

I also wrapped the interior trim pieces:

Wow. It's funny how I just dropped off my mc red S this morning to get PPF and tints done and the guy was asking me if I wanted to chrome delete it. I told him no since I wanted to enjoy the chrome for now... but WOW. Your car is absolutely gorgeous. You also have awesome photography skills! Great work!

Well thank you so much!!! Go with the chrome delete, you won't regret it.
 
Absolutely incredible shots. Can you please share what gear you use to get those kind of pics. They are poster quality. How do you light your shots? Is it a polarized filter? How do you get such immaculate detail...and lighting for both interior and exterior shots? What lenses and body do you use? Are you stage lighting them somehow?...the one with the red background?

And yes lol...your wrap job is great too. I want to do a wrap on my car’s chrome as well. At the very least the door handles.

@Kpsnow Did you use the primer and edge sealer they describe with the films from 3m?
