      @@tjscustomtinting Just wow! You did a great job! Well, you took the fin off. Bravo to you because there is just no way I will be able to take that thing off. So, I wish I could wrap it with it being on the car. Here below is a link to my car. I am slowly doing some small mods. Nothing fancy. On page 2, you see the new spoiler I just bought. It is black. My car is grey. So, I want to buy black covers for the side mirrors, wrap my gas tank black and then I wish I could wrap my fin black.

    How do you avoid the lifts at the end of a cut? I believe it's called "fingers".

    • @---DW---

      'Fingers' appear because the vinyl is overstretched. Theyre a sure sign that the vinyl will fail very soon.

    • @twixbong
      @twixbong 6 років тому

      There's a couple of ways to door handles. The pre-stretch method works as well as the technique where you anchor up at the front of the handle and pull the stretch across the middle and conform it to the door handle. Those are your 2 main ones that i've seen in my opinion.

      @BabyRhino984 7 років тому

      Oscar Acosta i have a 2017 mustang and those have to be done in two parts or it will be nearly impossible due to its design. The only real way to wrap it in one whole shot is to remove the mirror cap from the mirror holder/stand itself. So basically you can wrap the outer side as the first piece and then do the inner side as the second piece

    I find the vinyl fails on these a lot. And the one's I can't take off cars? I don't trust at all because you're only tucking a very little underneath, but that where your skill comes in I suppose, but even best installer can only expect so much. Idk WTF some of these car companies put on these antennas to install, but I'm not taking those one's off. They have epoxy or silicone or some shit holding them in, you really want to take that off? Fk that. Great job though. I guess it's a cheap problem if it fails every so often, so not biggest problem.
