Good 6 hours into the wrap got the DRIVERS fender/front door/rear door/quarter panel/roof/trunk/ and rear bumper (1/2) done

Everything is going super smooth and laying like butter, the rear bumper has taken the most time and fighting me a little bit in some spots but not too bad, and i had to stop where I was at due to dinner plans. Tomorrow I should be all finished besides the sideskirts, hood, and front bumper of course.








Gotta love my pup Bentley, keepin me company through the process

I am going to Matte white the handles as well, but ill do that at the end when i do all the little touch up.

Oh and I was really on edge about doin matte white, and when i laid the first fender and door i was like I HATE IT. But as i finished the side and started on the rear i absolutely fell in love with it. It is such a unique color and ties everything together and looks so clean! Im glad i chose the matte white! I chose gloss black for the roof just to clarify, and i wouldnt want it any other way, ties the dark windows and rims in (once there painted)

wow you're doing a really good job. It's almost like giving your car a makeover like those shows: get the girl the contact lenses and put make up on her and all of the sudden she's a fine lady.

How much is that gonna end up costing you once you're done (the wrap, not the car)

560 including all materials for wrap, tools, and prep products only not including labor.

usually a job like this runs roughly 2500+

You should do crazy sharpie art on the hood for shows. You can always peel off and re-do
