    I messed up the vinyl wrap on the side of my truck pretty bad so decided to peel it off.

    I got both sides done and thought it looked kinda cool? or possibly just terrible.

    What do you think?

    It would look good if you only did the top part of the cab with the hood

    Or maybe have the side (s) redone. How long did it last? I've been talking to a guy here that does all our beer trucks and says they have a really nice flat silver that I'd like. The problem is, he says if I park in the sun and weather all the time it'll only last about five years. $2000. So I can't decide, if I could pull it off in eight or ten years, and the paint looked like new, thats a win.

    I would leave the roof between the rubber strips and maybe the hood but peel the rest off. Looks pretty strange with the red side. But it's your truck. If you dig it, keep it the way it is.
