    From my experience, the Duplicolor is not as durable as I would like it to be...but so far the panels look good!

    I think it'll look great. A real headturner at the least.
    It should hold up for several years or more, depending on how much it sits out in direct sunlight. If it does fade, it is easy to remove the panels and redye them.

    What is your choice of dye? I'm thinking about going all black in my vert...
