Stripes arrived today. Baby's coming home tomorrow hopefully, so I'm hoping I can get these out Friday for you guys. My new radio also arrived, so I'm wanting to get that installed as well. Plus, of course, spend some time with Lilly. I'll keep you guys posted.

I'm in the middle of assembling the packages right now. I'm going to try to get these out today if I can. Anyone who was holding off, now is the time to order. "Pre-order" pricing ends 4/14. I will be hanging onto these until 4/18, then the remaining ones will be going on eBay to fund the next purchase, which will be 5 silver.

The silver ones look great. He sent me a small sample, of which I plan on uploading here once I get done putting together the packages that have already been paid for.

**edit** all 6 prepaid black and white stripe orders were shipped today. Can't wait to see some pics guys!

Here's the metallic silver sample. I just threw it on the car real quick. Didn't want to smooth it out and have it stuck there. It's a great looking color. These were taken against torch red and mineral grey. Also, the fade is very distinct because he scaled it down for the sample.

For best results, I would not install them below 50* or when it's very humid.

Need to go hang them on the wall so that they flatten out.

Thanks!

Perfect condition!

Went out last night and picked up a new spray bottle and some new micofiber cloths. Should be a fun day today! (That is providing that I do get the time to install them - homework et al)

Mine arrived into town yesterday, but I wasn't home to sign for them so they're sitting at the post office. I'll have to go pick them up on Monday.

Yeah, I seen that. I didn't request a signature. I'm surprised they didn't leave it. Live in a condo or something?
