FULLY DIPPED LS
I like it from the front... not sure from the back... maybe a shot / PS from directly behind???. I'll def through 70-100 bucks at it to try. worst case i take it back off... Then i've saved all my LVC buddies from making the same mistake...
If the rear glass came up and curved a bit more symmetrically with the car itself, yes. For my taste regarding the lines of the LS, I would have already ordered a roll. It is just a "tad" too much roof not to do the entire car like the fellow members are.

Soon we will have to rename this section 'Lincoln LS/Vinyl Projects'.
Off work tomorrow.. going to tackle some tonight, can't decide how hardcore I wanna go yet; but I am pondering both driver side doors.

I actually had my roof painted black like that, I think it looks really good on the LS

Yeah I decided to take the night off of wrapping and take the girlfriend out. This way she can't say anything about me being in the garage all day tomorrow.

I have no clue how to resize the pics and my car is dark blue so it is really hard to see. Its actually only noticable on sunny days, but on a silver or white car it would look really good.
Thx for the pics..... The first pic looks pretty damn good from what it does show. I will let it die for now but who knows what I will do when Spring gets here. Can't show up at the National Meet without some surprises. .

no i didnt. one key part to wrapping that i have realized is DO NOT CUT ANYTHING UNTIL YOU ARE FULLY DONE WITH THE PANEL!!!!
i cut the door handle out on my first try and it ended up messing everything up.
i dont think im going to even wrap the handles. tried and failed miserablely. think im just gunna color match it with paint.
the only think im going to remove is the side mirrors. but i have no idea how.

For the handles, just take off the door panel and unbolt the handles, was really easy.
And the mirror is just held in with 3 of the same bolts behind the plastic piece on the door. (though I think the panel has to be off for the plastic part to come off)

Ok easy enough. But do the 2 peices of the handle come apart now that its off?
It would be way easier to wrap if it were 2 peices

I replaced my passenger side mirror, and IIRC the plastic piece covering the mirror bolts (triangular) just came right off without doing anything to the door panel.

correct, you can pull the top part off without taking the whole door panel off... It might not completely come out, but enough to get to the bolts
