Default Vinyl wrap

I'm looking to vinyl wrap my 2004 es 330 and I wanted to get an idea on prices due to the lack of communication from my local shops. I wondered how much for installation by someone at a shop or myself and if it's difficult. Thanks

It's not clear what it is that you are attempting to do. Vinyl wrap what?

I think you mean That you want to apply Plasti Dip to the whole car. Do a You Tube search on Plasti Dip and you will see plentiful of Videos on how it's done.

Sorry, but no idea what the cost would be.

I bought 3 buckets of plasti dip sent to California before they became illegal. It cost me about $250-300 but they were on backorder for about 2-3 months at the time. Since the base of my ES was black, it was easier to paint and used 2.5 buckets. It'll cost you an additional amount of dollars if you decide to go the DIY route (spray gun). I got my buddy to paint it and paid labor with some beers + lunch & dinner. It's worth it, but it takes a little bit of care. It's been a whole year since I had it!

Over the months, you'd still need to apply some touch-up paint. I did this as an "experiment" but decide to stick with it for now since I've been getting too many compliments.
