    is this stuff really so hard to put on that someone else has to do it? looks like you just wrap the tape around the part and then cut it... maybe heat it a little to get the wrinkles out of the corners?

    That's pretty much it, yes. I've got a sheet of the DiNOC stuff that I'm going to try applying to the hood insert, once I get a few hours free. Of course, that's a pretty flat surface... If I have enough left over, I'll see what else I can cover reliably with it, though.

    It's easy if you know what you are doing and have a talent for it but inevitably will get messed up if you don't
