Wow! Just like what the others had mentioned, the flatblack effect made the rear fender arch bulge out more...

All it needs is some lowering with gold or flat black rims and your all set.

Came out clean, I have seen that 335 at the dealer before. It's a 4 door correct?

tb_evo - thanks. im just gonna go with gunmetal.

PR_Mivec - thanks. there are two small seams by the intercooler to avoid ripping. other than that every piece is a whole piece. all the panels worked with 48"

my97gst - thanks. yes, the 335 is a 4 door. a few people that have seen both in person tell me that they look pretty much the same.

That looks awesome!!! Job well done! What I would do ( tried it out in MC-LA) paint the rims a bright color. They will pop against the matte vinyl or so if someone can photoshop the rims for you. I think it would look good and it would deff be something different

this is a great way to go flat black and if it gets old or you get sick of it you can just take it off.
looks great btw

Looks great man, you should post a little DIY/how to. Did you use a heatgun? Did you have to use any additional adhesives or did the vinyl have an adhesive backing?
