Actually curious about this myself, I have about 3 cars I want to do. Feel free to Pm me.

The wrap is coming out great, I see a ton of time goes into this. I would be worried somebody would fuck up all the little clips and not screw anything on correctly though.

Nah Tiny spends a lot of time on the wraps. For the clips they actually pop right up if you do it correctly, I was scared at first and then realized how simple it is. The only real worry would would have about the roof seems to be the fin.

thanks for your contribution haha. I'm undecided about the mirrors since I've been reading they're hard to do.

They are super easy if you can take the off... I know there are two clips holding them on. Me and Tiny were not able to pop them off after trying several times. There is another method to doing them while still on, you can wait till I finish mine and decide from there, since I am going to finish with them still on.

I just watched a YouTube video on mirror cap removal seems super easy. Maybe I'll try it at home sometime this week.

the roof clips on the actual car are stuck on the with double sided tape. Older cars, the clips will actually fall come off with the rail/rail's side of the clip.

Hey xTiny, Nice work on the wraps. Did you have to do any inlays around the lip and fog light areas on your front bumper? Or did it all manage to stretch and stick just fine with one piece.

Hi! I did inlay (Small piece) around the lip/fog light area (The wall that is in the middle). I could 1 piece it but with the heat coming from the fog, it will easily lift the vinyl unless I add primer. I am against using primer on paint because it could potenitally damage your clear coat. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!
