Here are the ones I just ordered. It data they are marine certified

Lots of people use it to do the lower half for a two-tone Jeep. I've seen one entirely covered in it.

Ok sweet. They are $55 a pair and have great reviews. If you would like to see them just go to Amazon in the automotive section and look up polk audio coaxial speakers. Should be the first result

Well if you want to test how its gonna look.. you can always plastidip it how you want, then peel it off and repaint it if you like it.

From what I've seen, it looks great for 6 months and then fades.
