Would 4ft x 5ft a good amount material to do the front grill and window trims? I took some measurements on my car earlier and decided that I wanted to do straight strips for the window trim excluding the little triangles which i would use a whole square for, and a whole rectangle for my grill. I also ordered some wellvisors and if i go through with the chrome trim delete, i'd either use the leftover material to black out the chrome on the visors, plasti-dip, or try my hand at spray painting.
Here's a sketch to how I was planning on dissecting the vinyl sheet.

OMG...someone else with OCD!!! That is awesome dude!
I'm looking to do the chrome delete down the road too, if someone who has done it can answer this, that would be great!

Did you end up doing this? If so was 5'x4' enough?

I've held off on vinyl wrapping the trim. I'll definitely report back when I decide to tackle this project though.
