Krawler Konceptz Skins

So far I really like the Krawler Konceptz inside metallic skins. I have another set of body panels with outside skins that I feel won't be as durable in the long run as the inside skins. I've noticed mounting the body panels with inside skins, the vinyl doesn't "pull" like it does with the outside skins (this can be avoided if you carefully cut around the screw heads and remove that small portion of vinyl).
The trickiest part with any skin seems to be properly mounting it to the lexan. On the Wraith, the stock hood has a small ridge in the middle, a few creases you have to work the vinyl around, and the corners of the hood can be tricky too. I've noticed the inside skin seems to be slightly easier to work with as its not trying to "lift" on those sharp corners or curves. If you get any air bubbles, I've heard a small pin and a hair dryer can help work those out.
Once the metallic inside skins are on the lexan acts like a real thick layer of clear coat on a car and the metallic really shines in the sun. The possibilities are endless as far as design goes. You're only limited to what your imagination can come up with. I'm tempted to order another set of panels so I can have another skin made haha.
Three more shots for now, I need to find some rocks lol.

Price on the super light skinz? And do they include the lexan?
The skinz are the same, It's the light weight 0.010 lexan that makes it super thin and feather light :twisted: If you want a price of skinz mounted to lexan, send us a PM. We offer lexan in
