thinking about clearcoating??? here is a good sample what i was talking about before....
it will loose the shininess and become really dark and even after 4 coat it will still have its pattern / the clear wont cover that so u wont have the deep cf look.
Btw... on this picture u can really see how the pattern looks like and see how is the surface have those grooves/lines
oracal and hexis does not have the grooves on the pattern.

this stuff looks great.
i just put some on my front bumper where i had it blacked out before and it looks 10x better then having the black center and i did my trunk garnish, its pretty easy to work with too, im gonna try tackling my mirror covers too to work on the curves

pics when you get a chance..I was thinking about purchasing some specifically for the mirror covers (they've basically been sunburned out 
)*p.s. good looks CSOCSO - it's good we have a wide range of views in here.
Let's just hope more people post pics so we can all make a proper judgment.

davedave post a pic of your garnish please! Did you fill in and smooth the badge indent before covering? Or did you just leave it as is and put the badge back over the vinyl. LMK
