Default DIY vinyl wrap

And a few cellphone pics:







I also wrote a how-to on how to wrap your car: http://www.wanganwarriors.com/blog/i...-your-own-car/

Well done fella, looks like a good job. How long did it take you, and did you wrap into the creases?

I have also been toying with the idea of a full wrap, but cannot decide on a colour, but the only trouble is that the wrap has to end somewhere, I mean did you wrap into the door sills, boot, and even into the bonnet placement of the wings?

Im a little finicky when it come to this which puts me off.

I like it. very original scooby there mate.........but i think black wheels would suit it better.....just my opinion.

Nice job though. not a bubble in sight.
