Mike, I totally agree with that decision, keep the red strip, but that front red makes it look like someone stopped and didn't complete the job, as well as with the mirrors. Do that and the you will have " that absolutely gorgeous ride".
I like the side mirrors much more now . I probably would have eliminated some if the black and white stripes on the bottom as well , but to each his own . Looks great !
Great detail video. Really enjoyed this one. The Trump banner cracked me up. Trevor is super knowledgeable for sure. Did I see him paint correcting the vinyl on the hood? Not sure as the video was in speed motion. Love the mirrors with just an accent of red. Nice decision. Mike, your C8 is looking so good.
is your rear spoiler the low profile? What’s the code # for it, GM couldn’t give me the high wing because it’s constraint, had to go with a low profile on a 2LT Non Z51
The car is looking bad ass Mike!! Definitely like the mirrors better now. When my C8 finally comes, I plan to talk to Trevor for all the PPF and protection needs. He does an amazing job.
Mike great decision taking the red off the mirrors, they just stuck out to much. This was a great video and I just can't begin to tell you how much I love the look of that car. I truly believe it's one of the best out there (just my opinion)...
I'm pretty into keeping my red Cadillac as shiny as possible so this was helpfull. It needs paint correction to take it to the next level. There's mineute swirl marks & imperfections on every vehicle new or used. And you're right he is cool people!
@@aramistaboada5696, That’s your opinion and you are definitely entitled to it. Everything he has done to his car has really brought it out. Think of it like a beautiful woman without makeup then she add a little to enhance her beauty😎
I think the red in the front is too much too.lowering is sick! Looks BADASS!!! I didn’t know you were a Trumper though…I would leave ALL traces of politics out of your excellent videos.
I gotta say, removing those red mirror caps tones the car down immensely. They made the car jump out way too much and visually overpowered most of everything else. Liking this wrap design much better now.
For some reason this c8 looks way better than your last one, more exotic aggressive corvette now. Not that the last one was a slouch, not at all, I would have loved to have your last one, but this one is hotter. Lol
I’d leave the front with only the bottom eyebrows no vertical or upper red. Kinda effect would be like the line of red around the rear diffuser. This way there are no big splashes of red that are overwhelming. Similar to how removing the larger upper side view mirrors. Less is more. What you had before was to ghetto. This isn’t my style but it doesn’t mean you’re wrong and I’m right. Just that I’m more into balance and symmetry and not in your face flash. I too have a Ceramic Matrix Gray C8 and love the color. You have encouraged me to consider lowering mine. I also enjoy watching you recorded and live. Maybe you could mask off the front with black tape to see the effect before ripping off the wrap.
I sent this comment to jay Leon’s garage by mistake. When are you going to put a clear engine bay cover and change you’re engine cover? I got mine from American Hyrdocarbon and for engine cover got ceramic grey and red. Patrick the owner is great to work with.
Mike l love your channel, and I’m a future C8 guy. I’ve been watching you since you bought Capt America, I hope you would edit ANYTHING dealing with politics. Because one thing we can agree on with your channel is we all Love Corvettes 👍
All I can say is to each it's own, to me it looks like a match box or a hot wheels car. I know you need content and you take your Vette and do this stuff.
BIG MISTAKE not getting PPF but going for ceramic coating. Ceramic coating provides ZERO PROTECTION and anyone who say differently doesn’t know what they are talking about. The confusing part to me is you spend a ton of money on mods yet you forgo PPF then spend about the same amount on ceramic coating 🧐
Your buddy there should not be displaying political propaganda in his shop. Businesses should not be political because money has no political affiliation. I would not patronize this business for that reason
@@TheDetailLabTx But thats the thing. . . you will lose business . . . How may businesses do you see taunting trump or even biden? Guarantee you that if they did = loss of business. Some day you will learn that you leave politics at home. Hopefully next video on Brink of Speed, he will blur any political shit

Would you be making my videos today? I know that you will.
Since the c8 arrived , by far this is the best one I’ve seen yet , beautiful paint job and sheems on it
Thanks for pulling the red (all but the small strip) off the mirrors. Looks so much better. Red in the front works
Joel
Great job trevor
I love Trevor's thoroughness to inform!
He's a great guy and great at what he does!
Thanks so much
@The Detail Lab You're welcome but really BOS was well informed in your time & us viewers taking the time to listen & learn.
@@BrinkofSpeed what is wrong now
I think you did the right thing removing the red from the side view mirrors. 👍
Those Mirrors are a "Bitchin" Happy Accident!
oh man I want something like this. how much does something like this cost?
Really depends on what the car needs
Totally agree. The red mirrors were too much. Nicer now !!! Well done. Great vid
Thank you
looks awesome,,,,,
I just used that same Undrdog coating product on the inside of my new truck, Leather seats, dash, steering wheel, all the plastic, turned out amazing.
Trevor - what pads did you use(microfiber or yellow foam)? Also what polishing compound did you use? Sonax perfect finish? Thanks!
Microfiber cutting pad .. with a hybrid compound that cuts and finishes . U could follow it up with a perfect finish for added gloss..
I think this is one of the nicest one I've seen yet this thing is beautiful 👍
Looks amazing. The hood wrap shines so much more
I like the side mirrors much more now . I probably would have eliminated some if the black and white stripes on the bottom as well , but to each his own . Looks great !
Your c8 looks fantastic I love the red on the front end looks cool 😎
Great detail video. Really enjoyed this one. The Trump banner cracked me up. Trevor is super knowledgeable for sure. Did I see him paint correcting the vinyl on the hood? Not sure as the video was in speed motion. Love the mirrors with just an accent of red. Nice decision. Mike, your C8 is looking so good.
I did polish the vinyl..
BEAUTIFUL Mike !!!
Love it! Waaaaayyyyy bettah! Now about that too much red on the front grill…. Haaa! Great vid my man!
Looks fantastic!!
Leaving that little bit of red on the mirrors was a good idea.
Thank you Trevor & Mike for the excellent content and showing how these products protect your car.
😊👍
Great video as always. I love how the garage floor matches your C8, red, white , and black.
Excellent Video!!!
Loved it!
is your rear spoiler the low profile? What’s the code # for it, GM couldn’t give me the high wing because it’s constraint, had to go with a low profile on a 2LT Non Z51
Since you drive your C8 this was worth every penny. Well done! 👍👍 Save the Wave 🙋♂
It sure was. Thank you, Trevor did an outstanding job!
Agreed! 👍
P.S. I did like the red mirrors though. I just think they were a nice accent piece to go with the other red accents.
The car is looking bad ass Mike!! Definitely like the mirrors better now. When my C8 finally comes, I plan to talk to Trevor for all the PPF and protection needs. He does an amazing job.
Looks awesome Mike!
I think you right thou if you take the red off the bumper it will be fantastic. All you need 1 red stripe on hood , keep red calipers and your good
Absolutely right move removing the red.
I'm glad you like it!
nice looking job Cody and Mike looking for a corvette myself appreciate the work you do.
Mike great decision taking the red off the mirrors, they just stuck out to much. This was a great video and I just can't begin to tell you how much I love the look of that car. I truly believe it's one of the best out there (just my opinion)...
What a phenomenal job the car looks awesome
Squad leader #1 Two thumbs 👍 👍 ☝️
Thank you 😀
How about black mirror with a thin red line at top of mirror?
Looks awesome. Thanks
What percentage is your window tint?
20% sides, and back. 55% front
Car looks great, I think removing the red on the front would look even better, but your car your choice. Car looks amazing either way.
I'm pretty into keeping my red Cadillac as shiny as possible so this was helpfull. It needs paint correction to take it to the next level. There's mineute swirl marks & imperfections on every vehicle new or used. And you're right he is cool people!
Smashed !!!!!!!!
Thank you!
Does he buff the wrap on the hood any differently?
With a soft foam Polishing pad and a finishing polish
Tinted windows and going back to carbon flash on the mirrors with just the red “accent”….looks better than before….IMHO. 👍🏻
Love her aggressive first holy communion shine! That is BOS as she'll get! Great video!
Good job. I agree it had too many colors
Thank you
Man I would keep it like it is. Everything is coordinating perfectly. You have the baddest C8 I have seen yet.
You guys say that for everything he does to me it looks hideous. The C8 is exotic without everything his doing keep it classy.
@@aramistaboada5696, That’s your opinion and you are definitely entitled to it. Everything he has done to his car has really brought it out. Think of it like a beautiful woman without makeup then she add a little to enhance her beauty😎
It look much nicer now Mike before like I said it look like a carnival wagon 😊
Red pinstriping on the rear engine bay cover slats?
Beautiful C8, but I think it looks better without the red.
Hi Mike, Great job your car looks great with protection. Mike the rear part is very plain have you considered to continue red stripe in the middle?
I think the red in the front is too much too.lowering is sick! Looks BADASS!!!
I didn’t know you were a Trumper though…I would leave ALL traces of politics out of your excellent videos.
This reminds me of a viper acr
I love that he washed it with him.
WOW, how paint and graphics change a car looks. Beautiful. Thanks
Brink looking hard. But not sure if you answered why no PPF. Are you worried about scratches and rock chips.
I think it looked bad ass
Did you put clear back on the places you removed the red???
Glad to see that you are starting to remove the red from your new C8.
mike, how come you didn’t PPF the full front, instead of ceramic coating, now they say you shouldn’t be applying PPF on top of ceramic
Keep the red upfront and on the mirrors 👌🏾
Please leave the red on the front
I gotta say, removing those red mirror caps tones the car down immensely. They made the car jump out way too much and visually overpowered most of everything else. Liking this wrap design much better now.
Thank you
It's gonna look a 100% better without that red just the red stripe Good move Mike
How do you had any transmission problems
For some reason this c8 looks way better than your last one, more exotic aggressive corvette now. Not that the last one was a slouch, not at all, I would have loved to have your last one, but this one is hotter. Lol

Awesome video! Can you tell me the size and model of the wheels please?
Exactly, that is what I said at the beginning. Too much red....
Great decision Mike, and you're right get rid of the lower red and just leave the red stripe. Then it'll truly be "your awesome ride".
Good move removing red mirrors.
This channel is like a adult Pee Wee Herman, Adventures with a Corvette 😂🔥
This guy is really good and your car is really beautiful bro 👍
Thank you 😊
Wish I lived close to his shop I would definitely let him do my car 👍
About time 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

On a side note/observation. Love the Trump & S&W posters on the walls. Another reason to support The Detail Lab. 🇺🇲

Leno’s typo
I see my no was deleted. Looks like a 70s B I ss 302 Mustang
Politics are everywhere get over it. Nice job Mike it's your ride!
Winning!!
For us average folks what would this cost us for our C8? Please IM me or give us an around about figure!
1000-5000 whatever it is! Thanks
It your Corvette. BUTT It reminds me of a BOSS 302 Mustang from the early 70s.
All I can say is to each it's own, to me it looks like a match box or a hot wheels car. I know you need content and you take your Vette and do this stuff.
Your never satisfied good thing you weren't around in the 60's

It was a timing issue couldn't get everything lined up at the same time .
Your buddy there should not be displaying political propaganda in his shop. Businesses should not be political because money has no political affiliation. I would not patronize this business for that reason
That's the beautiful thing about running a business
Then you clearly don’t shop at Starbucks, Target, etc…. We are surrounded by propaganda.

@@DB-bp7hh I don't loose any business.. ur the only one that has a issue with the banners .. that were gifts from clients..
I recommend you to sell your micky car for 50k to cut your losses. It starts to look ridiculous. 😊
