black on black + wheel gap makes the wheels look extra small.

Once installed can't be removed without breaking some fasteners under the hood. You can see the PDF with the installation instructions:

So far the only thing i did was to the wheels. Plastidip coated (4coats) with glossifier (2coats). I am ordering the all-weather cargo tray and the hood edge protector today... then later the all weather for the rest of car. The reason behind the order of things is that with gigs coming up my hardware bag has been leaving dents and marks of on the original cargo floor.
Too bad...I would have gotten it otherwise. Thanks for the answer. Looks good though.

They are the same fasteners found on the underbody, side panels etc.. nothing hard to replace.
Probably safe to assume over time the two sided tape has developed a fairly tenacious bond, removing may end up damaging the plastic when peeling it back.
It was not hard to do . In my case , i took the wheels off since i didn't wanna mess with covering the brake assembly. I did them two at a time. It took about 3hrs including the drying for the glossifier. and it cost all around 25 to 30 bucks (5.98/can).

That looks crazy LIGHTING, appropriate username, can't wait to see the whole car.
its a bit complicated there are 3 difficulties in making these light:
1. taking out the headlamp cover: u've to take out the headlamp cover in order to paste all those strip led+ angel eyes inside
2. cabling: u need to decide whether which led wlll follow which light switches (fog lamp/DRL/or main battery)
3. Putting all back: you've got to make sure that all cover are tightly sealed with proper amount of sealant otherwise your headlight will get foggy during rainy season and u dont want that to happen
My advise is to bring it to the professional nearby to your hometown.
Good luck and have fun with it
