I wonder how well it will hold against Mother Nature? I'm a little skeptical..

nice.

would you be able to post (or fb me) some pictures of the door jams and seams? i'm going to do this in the spring and would like to know what to look for in terms of quality worksmanship.

do you have any worries about razor etching into the paint when the day comes to remove the vinyl? i assume you would treat the vinyl the same as paint with regard to washing and waxing (probably no mechanical buffers though)?

I'll post pictures, tomorrow while i am at the car show.

I am not worried, about razor etching I was there while they were doing most of the wrap, and Superior Auto Design did a great job.

Treating the Vinyl is different you can't use any Wax or detailers, no tire shine, anything that causes a shine to the car can't be used. I used regular car soap without wax and use Eagle 1 bug removal for the harder stuck on bugs... But i'm always on top of my car, keeping it very clean.

Your car always look good Jorge but I have to say that I prefer the non matte finish. Not taking away from the work you've done in any way though. You really do have a great looking Accord.
