I've been contemplating having the engine bay steamed, but hesitated because of the horrors I've read. Something about the electrical components getting crazy.

BTT:
I "installed" the rear fog light that I bought off Ebay. No connection yet.

Steam is the least corrosive method to clean your engine >
It's Completely bio-safe and leaves no residue. It doesn't harms the plastics, O-rings or belts, plus it won't cause rust in the alternator.

I just wish I could invest in one of these...


it only cost $10K. < Group buy?

Excellent job wrapping.
Its a breeze after the intial try out.
My mirrors covers were my first.
I've redone mine 3 times and love the final one the one the best; been on ever since.

First try, black and gold Carbon Vinyl.


As is now:

And, did you LED strip all the way into the fender? The light "appears" to go that far in..

I NEED to get mine installed... just been contemplating on how far around the headlight I want to wrap the LED around.

thank you. it was a hopeful for gold wheels at the time; but end result looked brown at night and i wasnt happy with it.

this was the attempt at the spoiler:

The better the LED the Less amount of inches you need to achieve the desired lighting. I went with a 12" "weatherproof" strip the end with the +/- cord is tucked into fender, the end closer to grille leave about 2 inches without LED. in my opinion looks best.

Yes you can!
Just takes a bit of patience.
I'll make a How-To on how to do it. (Give me a few hours, let me sort through all my other photos.)

not quite actually, if you zoom in, you can see the angel eye is kind of chopped not in a straight line, but regarding how fragile it is, they did pretty good
