Wrapped my hood
What do y'all think? First time ever wrapping... I think turned out pretty good. 3m makes it Sooo easy even for noobs like me.

Hard to tell from the pic. Upload some more!
I was thinking about doing this to mine but I'm on the fence. |

Installation is really straight forward and 3m vinyl is really easy to work with. Just make sure to clean/prep properly, not over stretch, and post heat. I didn't even use any heat while applying until the very end. I like the look of contrasting matte black against the red! |

Update! Took off wrap and am redoing. After sun came up I noticed stretch marks in areas I pulled too hard. New pics coming soon (also wrapping roof and trunk..)

I got quoted $500 to do this by a professional and even messing up the first time and having to redo, I got it done for $200 with a ton of vinyl left over for small things like antenna, door handles, and garnishes..
Just posted updates pics ✌️ |
