Looks great. I would be interested to see how it holds up to heat/cold and general use.

does the heat shrink it or just help stretch it out over the shapes, reason im asking is, I tint cars aswell, and you use heat to shrink the "spears" out of the film

Great job! I tried wrapping a lip for a car in that carbon fiber wrap... It was a disaster haha :) That was several years ago so I may have to try something again.
