OMG, looks sweet, never know you can wrap up the whole car. Would there be bubbles? does it wash like normal? Do you need to let dmv know you are changing color?

If I could just wrap the bumper, mirrors and hood in gloss black I wonder how that would look on my Obsidian Black G? It'd be nice to hide my chipped out mess on those three areas and have it protected from future chips too. It wouldn't cost a whole lot so maybe I'll just give it a try

Mars, was it tough doing the bumper? And do you have to remove a lot of the trim to wrap the vinyl or do you just tuck it in the gaps?
BTW, this seems like a pretty good source for the vinyl, if you have a minute to check it out I was wondering if those prices are good and if the Oracle & 3M vinyls are of similar quality. Thanks for your help as I'm really considering wrapping at least the bumper and would like to hear from someone that's actually done it.

i got my wrap from ebay:
3M Matte WHITE Vehicle Wrap Vinyl 60" x 15 yards | eBay
remember to get the 60" wide one so can cover the entire bumper in on wrap.
and also i use 3M only because they are the best.
