Isn't that just 3M or VVIVID vinyl wrap? If it is it would be cheaper to buy it by the foot off ebay or other online retailers.

In raw form yes, but the pinstripe won’t be there plus none of the cutouts. I’ve done it that way in the past and the results are pale by comparison

I didn't see the pin stripes. How did they handle the "Lincoln Continental" raised script?

The pinstripes outline the shape of the pieces.
The various scripts come off the main section.

It is a 3M vinyl, their Controltac product usually used for exterior vehicle wraps, but you will not find this woodgrain pattern available. It's not a generic look-alike, it's copied/scanned from an NOS part....it's the CORRECT woodgrain pattern in the correct (as new) color. The decals are all laminated with a clear layer also, gives extra protection and provides the right sheen.

Here's a link to this specific kit, you can click on "See other items" to see all of the many similar kits available for 70s Lincolns. I'd like to reproduce this kit for the 1975/76 Continentals also, with the burled pattern...let me know if any interest, please. It switched to the Majestic Walnut pattern for 1977.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/143544977542

The price there is $145, or $130 direct from me. Feel free to contact me with any questions, tips for installation, etc. I am glad to help. 920-205-1295 or b65062@charter.net
