Diesel350 Posted October 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 that looks great!! got a how I did it? Opened the hood, cleaned the surface with Isopropyl Alcohol, cut the Black Gloss Vinyl into the shape of the chrome, peeled the vinyl from the backside and applied it. I cut any excess vinyl off with an Exacto knife and contoured the remaining vinyl around the edges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWS Alpine Posted October 18, 2011 Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 Very nice. Vinyl is the way to go. I have the same gloss black waiting for my car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbuck Posted October 28, 2011 Report Share Posted October 28, 2011 Nicely done. That is one thing i don't like about our 11' Edge Sport and this is a dramatic improvement that is both easy to do and inexpensive. Now, I will have to do it when the wife is not around. She is not big on mods and its her car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edgieguy Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 I like it. I guess I never really paid mind to it on my white Sport, but now that you pointed it out, I'll probably have mine painted to match the rest of the bumper. Maybe have them get rid of the two small holes I have plugged where the plate was at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
