FRS Wrap Question

From the people who have wrapped their cars. How many feet of wrap will i need to cover the car. I believe the roll is 5ft wide so how many feet long will I need. 40 feet ? Want to make sure I have enough for potential errors as well.

120"x60" roll of vinyl should cover a lot.you'll probably want about 3-4 roll to make sure you have extra incase you messed up here and there.

hope this helps.

Where are you getting yours from, was thinking of doing a bit on my hood, roof and trunk. Curious about good quality, costs, and quantity.

Thanks for any info.

Use 3m all those other brands look good but start to peel and lift around the really sharp corners such as the headlight area and the bumper.

When I wrapped my car, I bought a 25 yard roll. That leaves you plenty of left overs if you make mistakes or damage the vinyl on a panel. 20 yards would probably be more than enough. I got all of my vinyl from Fellers.
