My god does the flat look awesome on the Solara. Im usually not a fan of flat on cars other like supercars but this looks fantastic. Well done, that said I think I tend to misjudge driveways and the like a little to much to wrap my car lol.

I finally decided to add a factory style wing this weekend, $59 (eBay) + extra vinyl. Wrapping anything with angles and sharp curves is such a pain. I defiantly need more practice, wrapped most of it in one piece but still had to patch it up. From the pics it doesn't look too bad but up close not as nice. I think I'm done, not sure what else to do to my Solara. Most people like it, I've gotten plenty of complements, and others ask me what color do I plan on painting my car :-? One thing I still need to do is rewrap the driver side door. I’m just not looking forward to peeling it off.

I keep telling my self I'm done modding my Solara :drinking: ... I just installed some plug and play Projectors. Morimoto Mini H1 with 35W 5000K HID kit. The projects can only handle 35W so I had to replace my DDM Tuning 55W 6000K HID Kit (they might end up in my fog lights :D). Over all, I'm happy with the looks and results.

yeah man better smoke those lights, or do the blackout look, or something, cos they are just asking for it, hey man did you wrap around the door and the trunk, or did you leave the parts that are inside white?

man.... it looks so good. Just change out the chrome molding to matte black as well and it will look DEADLY! Wonder how it would look if the body is matte black and then make the lip kit and spoiler glossy black maybe side mirrors too...that would be different or carbon fiber? PHOTOSHOP? lol
