Matte Black Blades

Definitive · 09-04-2009, 09:58 PM

Today I decided to go by Eyedentity Graphics. Its a car wrapping place where I live. I was able to pick up some scraps(very generous scraps...) for cheap and heres what I did.

I got matte black for the blades the chrome around the grills and possibly the back reflectors. Today I got the blades done.

I got some gloss white but it is too bright of a white. Ill have to get the clear reflectors I guess.

I am going to do this to my X5 35d (Alpine White) when it arrives - thanks for a great idea, it looks great.

Sweet. Ill post pics when I get the rest done. It was pretty easy, but takes a little practice if youve never done anything like it. I used to do tint at some stereo shops I worked at. Its similar other than the tight curves.
