local vinyl shop or online, ebay has a ton of matte black if your going that route.
The matte black route is a more "tradition" wrap scheme. I would suggest going matte grey. |

The vinyl can be removed without damage to the paint right?

I bought a roll of matte white off eBay for $350 shipped to my door with squeegees. I never got around to wrapping my whole car though. No time.... |

Well lets say you know a guy that does the wrap for a living... I buy the material lets say $400.
I do not see how a guy will charge $5500 for the labor. I bet if I give him $1500 on the side he would do it no? |

I bought cheap stuff as I am a college student and funds are tight. Also you're suppose to laminate the matte with clear matte layer to protect it. That's where the price jumps. |

My good friend is an installer of paint protection and they have now come out with Matte paint protection.
This is ultimately the way to go because it is far superior to the wrapping vinyl as you dont need any protectant film on top of the vinyl. He has wrapped a few lambos now, along with many other cars and loves the film! Check ou tthe matte paint protection! http://www.prestigeautoarmor.com/Gallery.html These are a few of the cars he wrapped! As you can see the clear is nonexistent!
