want matte finish without paint the entire car.

 

Thanks for that, do you have to remove the grill or do you just tuck it into the gaps? Is this something that's easy enough for a noobie or is there a DIY video you can recommend?

 

just try ur best to remove stuff out of ur way.the more u can get it out the better ur warp will be,i did remove my front bumper than remove the gril.but the front bumper will move around when u appyly the wrap.so better just remove the gril and apply the wrap.

 

Thanks, I've been wanting to black-out my grill anyway so it that word work well. Just installed some BAT vinyl light overlays so I'm getting some experience w/ vinyl

 

watch video on Youtube.and remember,with a heat gun,you can make anything work~

 

It seems like the bumper would need at least a 6 foot piece or can you just stretch the 5 foot section around the bumper so it fits?? Also do you need the application fluid or will it work w/ just soapy water and a heat gun??

 

i did it without soapy water and water just apply it because is 3M.

for the front bumper u got need to cut the wrap.i dont remebmer how big was the front bumper.just check by tape measure.

 

Not all matte jobs are created equal, but this one can convert most unbelievers. I don't dig the wheels, but the finish of the car looks awesome as far as matte goes(IMO).

Sorry, had to hyperlink, I'm on my iPad.

 

Good luck wrapping it yourself. I been in the business forever, I'm a creative director and I watch the wrappers that work for us. No way I would even attempt to do it. It looks good in pictures when these people DIY, but I've seen them up close and the camera hides what you would see in RL...

 

I've done quite a few vinyl jobs on smaller parts (grills, wheels, taillights, window trim). The vinyl has progressed quite a bit w/ the newest air passing technology but I still really can't imagine doing a whole car, especially all the little trim areas that require a lot of attention to detail. On a white car you should be able to get away w/ a few minor imperfections, on my black G it would have to be a flawless job to pass the visual test. Best to leave it to the pros

 

in CA? where, please?

 

Nice work but I can take better pics with a potato

 

Came out nice! !
