Got home and these were waiting for me



Of course, the first thing I did before anything else... Put them on!

I was kind of scared to pull any harder than I did on the others so I just left it and am gunna look around on here to see if there's a trick or something.

Default Bushwackers Unstalled

Had my new Bushwacker fender flares installed today. It's going to take a while for them to grow on me I think.

I think the lighting kinda makes them seem like a lighter shade of yellow than they actually are. In person they're the perfect golden-yellow shade, matches the Bruins gold perfectly.

Thanks, I saw people throwing around numbers like $30-40 for 3M stuff (on this forum and other random forums where I researched it), but I didn't want to pay $40 for a sticker... Plus, 3M didn't have the color I wanted.

I just went with a roll off someone on eBay.

It looks good in person. No rips or tears while I was doing it. No clue how long it will last, but I don't really care either way. I think I paid like $12 for a 24" x 36" roll. If it doesn't last, it was only $12. Even if 3M did have the color I needed, I still don't think I could get past the sticker () price.

Black & gold in the win column would look pretty good right about now lol. That defense... or lack of defense...

Yeah the sites I looked at for 3M were kinda sketchy and unorganized (pet peeve of mine), so I just looked on eBay and found this instead. On the paper backing the brand says "Oracal" - "Intermediate Cal" - and the number "651."

I just Google'd "Oracal 651" and it seems to be rated for outdoor use. Either way, I know pretty much nothing about vinyl wrap. All I know is it looks cool and was really easy to do lol.
