the wrapping thread (pic heavy thread)

[shnazzle]

man I have been um'ing and ahh'ing I love whites but I kinda wanted to go stealthy grey...I just cant choose

yeah i'm wondering about the bumpers I have a vinyl cutter so if it looks too bad il just make some decals and sticker bomb the bad bits lol

hahaha!! That's being resourceful
Not sure about the look though so let's hope the wrap goes well  s:D s:D

I know that would be the worst case scenario but got be prepared right? Il still have a roof made out of duct tape and swiss cheese.

Where do yoy guys buy the wrapping vinyl?

[kostonhumar]

I got mine from a eBay vendor and got testers from various people to make sure the quality was good.

yes i have seen this now, it reminds me of when i put on a clear plastic protector on the screen of my phone, first time i tend to have minute dust particles on the surface and this causes bubbles, so i get the next one ready and get this one off and the new one on as soon as.  Theory behind it is that the first attempt takes all the crap with it!

I would assume its a similar process for the wrap, any crap under it will cause bubbling.

How much have you used so far?  are you likely to run out?

[kostonhumar]

no i think il be fine for vinyl..... i have wasted 1 bonnet and soon to be 1 engine lid. so 3x1.5 meters?
