Thanks Yates.

It does look good if done right:

I prefer like in this pic with the line of the hood flowing into the headlamps without covering the side amber spot.

Why do you torment me with that pic?


That's exactly what I did with vinyl but like I said, didn't look right because of the gap between the hood and lights.

If he can it like what's in this pic, I will buy a set RIGHT now. But notice how this one doesn't cover the side marker lights and your pic does?

It might be that the only way to get it exactly matching the hood finish is to actually paint them inside and out to reduce all that light hitting behind it via the reflector. Otherwise it might always suffer from looking lighter than the paint on the car.

As far as the gap tween the hood and the lights, if the finish matched exactly I don't think it would be as much of an issue ... wouldn't it look like any other two body panels separated by a small gap?

Yes it's a chopped version of this image: http://motorlounge.com/media/uploads/cars/article/GMC_Yukon_Denali_jpg_640x480_upscale_q85.jpg

The point is however that any film, unless it's able to block light coming through it completely, is going to look lighter than the paint around it because of the light reflecting back from the housing. Plus at night you'll have amber light coming through the parking light bulb behind it.
