like the blog said, it is a BIG thing over here in Germany. ALL the taxi co. do it so they can resell there BMW 5 series and Benz's every year. It is starting to get over to the "tuner" scene more and more. I have been talking t a few people back home about shipping them full rolls when they decide to get off they azz.

Most race team now use this stuff instead of paint. There must be a place in the U.S. where you can buy it. Although I will be leaving for October fest in Germany shortly. Not sure how I feel about the use of a heat gun to apply it though.

It seems it works kinda like heat shrink so it shouldn't hurt anything.
