looks good...everyone doing the matte black makes me miss mine. It looks cool...but maintenance was a PIA. Your wrap looks clean though. I also like the purple!!

Thanks again fellas.

xxtoobsxx.. maintenance on mine is very very easy. I just hand wash it like normal (I use baby shampoo since most car wash soaps have wax) and dry with a shammie. Every two/three months or so i go over the car with vinyl conditioner. Wipe on wipe off lol. Its been wrapped for over a year and looks just like i did it yesterday

Nice...i might give it a shot. Until i respray my car. The paint was a PITA to maintain. Looked bad **** at night though. How much did the vinyl cost ya? I wouldn't mind a satin black wrap...

You can measure it out and get how ever many yards you want (will depend on where you want to have seams) for $30/yrd. You can also buy bulk and save some $$ and have some extra in case you mess up or anything... nice to have extra if you ever get a fender dinged or something. The rolls from Fellers (national distributor) are 60" wide too which helps out a lot. I got a 25 yard x 60" roll for $600. I wrapped my car .. switched hoods and wrapped another one... wrapped tow bikes... an xb hood .. an S2000 hood/ trunk.. and bought another fender (mine was trashed) and wrapped it all with that one roll lol. I imagine if you measure it right you can get away with like 16-18 yards and cost you around $400-450. Very tedious work though... like prepping a car for paint. You WILL touch every square inch of the car lol. took me about 23 hours for mine. Done an s14 in matte white about a month ago and have gotten much better and quicker... still took me about 17 hrs to do it.
