Ordered the vinyl on eBay and took about 1 hour with tracing out the headlight chrome strip and using the blowdryer to smooth out the edges. Not bad for 16.00 and some time... Let me know what you think...</p></blockquote>

 

Gloss black?

Your install looks really clean. Much cleaner than when I did mine, but I didn't know about the hair dryer technique. I recently took my wrap off and plasti-dipped everything. When I removed my wrap it left a sticky film all over the grill that was a pain to get off. Lots of scrubbing.

 

It's amazing how a little chrome strip turned black can change the entire appearance of the vehicle.

If anyone is still following this post, I have a 2011 AWD Ford Edge Limited and been wanting to strip all the chrome... 

How were those little long decorative dimples to apply the vinyl to? Did the heat just allow it to be applied ok? 

How long did it last?

Any issues with road rocks being kicked up? My Wife is very artsy craftsy and offered to help cuz I just dont have the patience lol...

 

Thanks!
