when searching for these matte black was very common. Satan black not so much but the Gloss black was a little hard to find. I do like the Satan black though. Looks nicer

I'm starting to wrap my 86 Fiero. I am taking the panels off and covering. On the Fiero it's easy to take apart the car. But I've never seen too much other that the door handles and the lights taken off the car to wrap around them . You REALLY don't have to do that. It's just your option to remove things to not have to trim the vinyl so close to the edege and possibly have the original color show through.

I am wrapping one panel at a time to focus on doing a good job. If it turns out well on the Fiero, I plan to wrap my G front bumper in Pearl to cover all my rock chips.

I've thought about doing this but if you car has rock chips (which mine has a lot of them) wouldn't that cause air bubbles in the wrap? That's my only concern, I don't care about it taking a long time to do the whole car.

Chips wouldn't be that bad. It would be Craters might give you the bubles. But from what I have observed, as long as you use a squeegy and a heat gun, the wrap should set down and stay down.

That's the reason for putting it on my Fiero, trial and error. Also trying it on my wheels to change the center color. I seem to have a lot of Police looking my way (crossing white line and tint tickets, no speeding) and I think my main issue is the black wheels against the pearl white, attracts them to look at me, so I figured I would try white on white and see if I like it. ALso gives me a little experience with vinyl...

^^that's great then and yeah, that makes sense with the wrap sticking to the panel when you use the heat gun. I might have to get some vinyl and try it on some panels I have laying around in my garage, hood, fender and spoiler from another car.

I've ordered one 24"x24" piece to try out first on a wheel. It should be here this week sometime. Then I just need to hit up Harbor freight to get a heat gun
