    Longest Surviving Shadowline

    Who has had shadowline last the longest and what steps did you use to do it? I want to do mine but there are many ways to do it here and a lot of people have had trouble with peeling and chipping. The longest i have read of is a year. Thanks guys

          mines been on for almost 5 years now... there is one place where it peeled last year because the body shop put tape on it, but it's been just fine otherwise.

                  Because it'd all crack when you flex it to put it back on.

                              Yep, mine is factory and looks great. If your really worried about peeling find a parts car and nab the factory shadowline.
