Thanks for the instructions! This was my first vinyl wrap job - I'm actually surprised at how well it turned out. Door handles are next, and should be even easier.
I would note a few things: - I don't have a heat gun, but my wife's hairdryer did just fine - I was able to use my fingers to release the tabs and separate the chrome surround from the grille. Screwdriver maybe better but I was scared of snapping the tabs - I dropped the bondo spread tool into the fender when removing the sidemarker. Luckily there was a hole punched into it, so I was able to fish it out with a coat hanger - On the driver's side, I forgot to guide the LED cable through the tabs on the fender. Hopefully this isn't a big deal?

At least on the passenger side, I noticed the wire was guided through a couple tabs so that it hugs the fender and doesn't flop around. On the driver side, I either didn't notice it, or it doesn't exist.

You're good. It's not going no where. You did good on the door handles, better looking than mine on the edges.

Looks good. Did you take the grilles off for this? I don't have chrome on my 13 grille, but thinking of doing this anyway as an experiment.
