if it does not come out nice, just use break fluid to remove the paint

Since you still in milnerton or close by. Go to china town sable square and go to the car shop at the back they sell laminx and its about 60rand for a meter then you can either do it your self or go to the wrap master in maitland by malcomes place. its about 300 to wrap it red. Wrap masters number is 0837413523 his name is Garith.

Its difficult to wrap with LaminX ... I bought the roll but decided against it ... I opted to take it to a professional to spray paint mine ... 2 x candy apple red and 1 x clear coat ... check my For Sale tread to see the results.

Crewzern is right its difficult to do yourself but if you take it away to the place i said it can be done easily and if you dont want it anymore you just pull it off. Easy as that
