Let's share our Halloween trix this year. I'll start. Just in time for TRON ARES updates, I found a quick, fun, and affordable Tron lines option.
Amazon has these reflective vinyl 6x20 for $17 at https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DRYWJS96
I used a Paper Guillotine cutter like this https://www.amazon.com/Amazon-Basics-Guillotine-Heavy-Duty-10-Sheet/dp/B07LFHSRNB/
to cut them into ½ in strips to have 12 strips total. Took about 2 hrs. This is enough to wrap mine with some wiggle room...
Some lessons learned are stretch the tapes a little then apply pressure. This makes it stick really well. Do it in the sun for max adhesion. For the corners, overlap them then trim with box cutter as needed. The tape is very soft and easy to work with. Took me about 4-6 hrs.
Not sure how durable they are but I'm getting extras to touch up as needed. I think these tron tapes are sold for hundreds! save me a ton. Maybe I'll change the color next time but the Silver matches really well.
PS: ready for $300 cantrail recall reimbursement
