    Hmmm. Can you post a pick [circled]? I can't see that. They are quite small. Maybe 8" x 6", or so.

    The company I bought mine from has a full bumper set too. Hood and bumper goes for only $24.

    Thanks. :)

    Pinan - how is your kit holding up? Just installed mine today. Looks good but I am worried that it will not be as good as my 3M kit is...

    thank you - i did not see it. i got the full kit and it went on very well with heat. it looks great but did not have as much stretch as i thought it would. do you know if this film will fade evenly with the paint?

    Other than the info on there site, and what I posted, I have no idea. But I did not find any negative information on the product. The very worst scenario? Have the hood re-painted (doubtful).

    Post 26 correctly identifies the location for the mysterious triangular pieces.

    Was this a question? Your post got a bit messed up. If it is a question, I answered it on the previous page (post #17), and it's in that link as well.

    Following up after one month and a few PM's. All is great with the protector. I did put on the triangle pieces too, which was very easy. About 1min. each. The mirrors on the other hand I gave up on. Far too bulbous to get it to fit/stretch properly. If I were to try again I would shorten the mirror piece to avoid that really rounded part of the mirror.

    Other wise I'm very pleased with the product and job.
