    So Iv currently got my trucks bumpers, hood,roof and tailgate wrapped matte black. I sorta miss the red though. The black is also starting to get some little holes in it in some places.

    What do you guys think? peel it or leave it?

    I think it looks pretty cool!

    EDIT: If it is starting to look crappy then take it off.

    I'd leave it.. Taking wraps off can cause more paint damage.

    Peal it all off and give it a good winter wax.

    Depends on how the holes are? Once water gets in there it could possibly end up lifting the other parts and have it look even more like crap.

    Its getting some smaller holes in the front bumper from rocks etc but nothing real noticeable yet. Also the bumper is pretty scratched underneath so I would want to get that repainted when I peels it off.

    Looks good to me. I'd keep it until it wears bad enough and then take it off.

    I think that's what I'm going to do, Iv been considering trading in for a 13 in the spring so I'll peel it off a bit before that.

    I figure they will want it all off anyways eh?

    Also, a bit off topic but does anyone know if they will let me keep my wheels/tires if I trade mine for the 2013's?
