AW with black lower face
So before you flame me here is my story. Got the car and ran to Xpel to cover the front for track day protection. Did a few track events and found that the clag
got imbedded in the front film, even though I kept it below 135...really hard to get clean....but the painted, no film surface, cleaned up easily. During this test time a Valet parker dinged the front bumper ( picture posted in another section),so the insurance company gave me a check for a new bumper cover and new film. I went to AWE and they said they could remove the film, pop out the ding and put a wrap, plus ceramic on the nose to fend off evil track trolls. It's hard to tell but the wrap is gloss except to "mouth" is flat black. I like the look, but can't wait to get home this weekend from RA and have a quick clean up: |

I'm still lost here. After you posted I looked and didn't understand. Waited for a couple people to chime in but nothing yet.
So basically you wrapped half your bumper in gloss black??

Hey as long as you are happy with it! So any pics of the XPEL with the particles in it after the track session? Did you ask the installer on a good way to remove any of that?

Was Brexit wrong....depends on who you ask.
When I am at a road coarse or drifting, I like the cars that look a little off the norm....just adds something of interest.....so when the guy in the P car gets passed he can walk around the paddock and ask where is that ugly ass M2! |
