sorry but definately not feeling it... If you have tinted windows I like the black vynal on there to blend the window and lines of the car together, without the vynal the lines just look really weird/off to me. Just my opinion...

Pull the vinyl, then paint it black, paint would be so much better......when the weather changes I think I will do this..... black paint ftw!

doesn't look as good as with the vinyl. Just my opinion. It doesn't flow, and it breaks up the windows.

I like it better with the black vinyl. I agree that the lines look better with flow from window to window.

i am considering doing my black cobalt for this. I hate that crappy vinyl look. It makes the car look cheap and will eventually bubble overtime.
