Default black fangs with 3M Tape?

Hallo everybody

In one month i receive my new 370z color PG, so the first thing that i wanna do is black fangs.
I consider between to do it with 3M Tape or to paint it.

So my question is, have anyone experience with 3M Tape black fangs?
What do you prefer? Tape or paint?

I haven't any experience with the 3M Tape. But i think it's easier to take it away after a few years.. And i heard the Tape looks good.

Thanks for your recommends!

They both look good. Painting the fangs would only cost about 20 dollars U.S. And the carbon fiber fang cover is around 200 dollars. It's really up too you, there are a lot of pics of both on this forum in every Z color just look around.

Thanks for your answer.
I looked around via the search function in this forum. But sometimes it's not so easy to find right information

I found a lot informations about painted black fangs but i didn't find something about tape fangs.

I will check it again.

I think bats did a 3pc tape-on version. I think the painted would look nicer (if done correctly) or go CF by the370Zstore.com

as I posted earlier, Batsmobile had a 3pc vinyl for the fangs. I'm not sure where he went. He was(?) a vendor here.

Bluebat is still here but I believe he is on other forums more. Was any one looking to buy the bluebat mobile ones???

I can get a hold of Blue for anyone who needs it

If you want Carbon Fiber Vinyl.. Why not go for the 3M Di-NOC Carbon Fiber Vinyl and do some DIY? However, with the size of the fang, you'd probably need 48"x48" (or 60"x48" to be safe, I didnt measure it, just estimate off my head), and it'll cost you $100-130

Have someone experience with Vinyl overlay on the front fangs?
I'd would be nice to see some pictures with a 370z..

Do you see a different between painted and taped (vinyl overlay) front fangs?
I prefer to put a vinyl overlay over the front fangs because it protect the original car paint and it's easy cancel it.
