 Simply breathtaking. Love it. Makes it so much more awe inspiring to see because you kept us updated from your very first panel, through hail and hardship, to the very end. Thanks Bogart! |

Thanks all!!
Yep, it's been a long ass road.... to say the least To think it's been almost 2 months since I first purchased the vinyl and made my first post, then kind of feeling like I bit off more than I could chew after each door took me 4 hours, to the hail damage that kept the car in the shop for 2 weeks and didn't allow me the wrap sections for another week after that, to not being sure whether or not the front bumper would be done in time for the two events I have coming up, to now, is crazy. I'm glad that I could be somewhat of a guinea pig, and I hope I inspired people to wrap their own car as well. Thanks everybody for following along. More pictures coming soon. Until next time

Money shot! Holy shit this looks awesome.  I want to take on a project like this for my car. Thanks for proving it can be done and estimating the cost for the rest of us.

When did you get the wrap??? it got there that fast? also,i started on my car,did the front bumper tonight all one piece,no patches. (By the way,for anyone who thinks about wraping their car...it is DIFFICULT,i don't know how Bogart did it by himself,many will give up in frustration.If any of you do decide to start wrapping,buy enough for one panel,see how it is and only then cough up the 500-700$ needed to do a complete car)   Last edited by Nestea69; 06-03-2012 at 02:46 AM.. |

Wow. Looks REALLY good considering you did the work yourself and had no prior experience. Love the color choice.

So sick, one day if I bring a pizza and beer you have to help me wrap a piece on my ride. So I can learn faster and waste less. I am thinking pearl red or that green you posted on facebook

No problem, anytime. Just so you know, I'm offering a special offer of $1,200 for the next 5 cars that I wrap. This includes materials and labor. You won't find a better deal anywhere else.
