You can see where I kind of missed on the passenger door and its pretty noticeabe as the silver shines through.

Passenger side quarter window, pretty smooth

Tons of airbubbles form when you apply it but i went back with a needle on a hot day and popped the bubbles and it wound up looking this smooth ^. It took 2 rolls of the tape btw.

Good job man, I used the same thing. Around the sharp curve in the back, it IS possible to stretch it on there and cover everything, but it's almost impossible haha. Spent like a half hour on each of those corners probably.

I did the same, and there is another silver sedan owner on here that did it as well.

I think mine took two rolls also.

A cheap mod that can easily be removed if need be.

Nice work.
