So who has had this for 5 years and safely removed it? It looks awesome but they said that about the first clear bras that yellowed and took paint off. Is there a guarantee that paint will be safe?

I've had it on 3 years. Others have had it on for the same amount of time and had it removed. There's no adhesive, so no damage.

You inspired me to get it done out east. Have had it for 1.5 years and still looks like new paint.

Check out this magnificent Satin wrap I found on my Instagram. I don't even care for these satin, matte finishes but this is amazing looking.

Hood looks very similar to my M4 GTS in frozen grey metallic.

I personally think this hood shape is the coolest ever (M2/3/4 CS and M4GTS)

Very cool someone was able replicate for X

Ghettofabulous ⁉️

Should've maybe applied a second coat

Because it either doesn't photograph well or the original color is bleeding through

To protect this wrap/paint, can you apply PPF on top of this?
Could removing the PPF cause damage?

I would hate to see rock chip exposing black original paint with that amazing orange color...

iirc it is basically paint. but they put a coating down first that allows you to peel it off.

and i do believe you can even vinyl/ppf over it.
