    Yes, you have to make sure you get it around the edges

    I wonder how long it'll last though. Hows the quality? I had some that I did some dash accents in my truck and after a year or so it started to lift around the edges.

    thats why you have to take the parts off and wrap around the edges and seal it on the back side. its made by 3M and it REAL sticky.

    time will tell though!

    So... I'm slow... Is this a 3M carbon fiber vinyl or did you do something else? I'd sure like to do my bars. How did you get such a clean installation?

    vinyl, dont do it - I am disapointed after it endured some cold weather - it gets brittle and somehow shrinks a tiny bit - some of my covered parts will be ok but the bars are most likely going to come off and get painted instaed.
