Thanks guys!! Yes I did it myself. Watched a couple youtube vidros and ordered the stuff. I will tell you one thing. Don't be greedy and try to save on material unless you are willing to spend literaly twice the amount of time. It's all in the stretching of the vinyl. The hardest parts are obviously the round edges because the slack needs to go somewhere. So, what you do is stretch it, and stretch it. Good thing is every piece you do you only get better. The doors took me like 45 minutes each because I cut the pieces to exact. I suggest you cut the pieces as you go and not all at once so that you could see how much extra you think would be sufficient for the next. If I would have not cut theoieces as exact as I did I would have taken 30 minutes 20-30% less time. I also ordered the metallic black vinyl
For the complete bottom part of the doors and all around the truck. I've only done the 2 front doors and the back part of the front fender.

Like you said they pop off but there are 2 screws, 1 behind each of the small pockets where the 12v source is on the drivers side and the same pocket on the passengers side. Put a flat blade screwdriver in the slot on the bottom and they pop out.

I hope you don't mind, I copied!!! Bad ass idea man. Thanks!

Good job on not stretching the carbon fiber too much cause that'll cause the lines to become wavy, and they look pretty straight! :thumbsup:

My interior is hydrodipped, all the dash pieces, and interior door handle pieces. a little bit more durable and permanent but much harder of a process to do right. Once you change it up you don't realize how plain/dull the stock trim looks.

Lol not at all good work btw. How were those rounded/curved edges!? Sorry I hadn't replied I'd been away for a week or so getting lift and wheels installed.
