hope you can sell the trims with the wraps pre-installed so that we can just swap it out. im not a fan of taking my stuff off, sending it to get it done, waiting wating waiting..x(?)

...then finally installing and told it's not reversible.

what i have been trying to do lately is buy some stock pieces so i can sell and swap for stocks in return...this way no one waits and then u just swap and put back in same box and ship.

that's a good idea. at least then the enduser gets to decide whether he wants it on the car after receipt. not that im questioning your quality...just saying it may not turn out as expected. its hard to tell from just picts some times.
