Is that a vinyl adhesive on the top? I like the way it matches the blacked out portion of the front.

I kinda like the pin striping. I might give it a try on my black 08 LB, maybe in silver or dark gray as it would match the car better.
What are the four series of three dots along the lower window frame?

i hear you bro with the black thing but it seems to look better in person but it could just be me.. got to get rid of that chrome strip in the front its botherin me.
and for the spoiler went with replica spoiler...been trying to get the toyota oem but no luck on part numbers kept getting me routed back to 07 rs spoiler which is what i use to have.. also there is a difference with this replica vs oem... replica lays almost flat alligned with the roof where the oem has a noticeable tilt towards the end.

Looking pretty good marcus. Think maybe it's time to de-clutter a bit though. Stick with the blue/black theme, drop the red stripes and chrome whatever the hell that is on the front bumper.
I've always had the thought of vinyling the roof bouncing around my head. Would like to hear more about it. You can either discuss it here, or PM me some details. Material provider, cost, process, etc.

What are the specs on the Tires/wheels? lowered springs? I like the way it has filled up the wheel well.
Like the black additions, adding more and more to my white 08 3dr.

OK then. Cost? Warranty on work? Life expectancy of the vinyl?

oh yeah..$160 cnd 6 months on labor not sure what that means. 5 years life expectancy..starts cracking after that ..

Hmmm. Not too bad.
Did they remove the antenna, or work around it? Life expectancy of 5 years; do you know it that is garaged, or fully exposed 24/7/365?

im thinking 5 years with 24/7 365 outside.....

My roomate used to use that for show. He kept it on for almost 2 years and decided to take it of.. when we pulled it off, some of the clear coat on the paint came off also.
Granted, it wasnt an OEM paintjob before, but it was a $4k paint job none-the-less. I read later that that is actually happens all the time. hope this doesnt happen to you when its time to take it off. I hope the people who installed it know something that we didnt.
Looks good though.. i likes

not too worry about the vinyl.. if clear comes off later after peeling it then ill just paint in matte black..actually painting might be a better option just too lazy sanding and covering the rest of the car to paint of course no place to do it as well..

LOL.. Belive me, I will never touch another piece of sandpaper again after doing my crx. I do not blame you one bit for using vinyl.
nice RockLandToyota. Im curious also. Can you post a pick of it sometime? Id like to see your vinyl. Is it for toyota?

This is what I was going to comment on -- the reason I like the RS wing is because of the "tilt" but yours somehow doesn't have it. :iono:

A quick Google search on the subject indicates that factory paint should not be at risk. I have found cautions against using it on non-factory paint as the vinyl may lift it.
