Which begs the question, unless I missed it, what color is it?
The ad says green, but it looks black to me and I DO NOT want anything even close to black - shows ALL the dirt and spots.

My son wants sky blue or ocean blue (blue is his favorite color) and I like the jewel tones - Ruby, Emerald and Sapphire. Does each year have its own set of colors?

I've known a couple of people that have done the wrap and enjoyed it with no paint problems underneath. From what I understand, the film and process is very similar to the clear bra.
If you want the car, don't like the color, this is a good alternative. BUT, the best alternative is to keep looking.
