Vinyl Wrapper Cars
With spring approaching, I'm getting ready to take on the endeavor of wrapping my car. Not only to freshen it up with a new color, but to protect the underlying paint. If you're wrapped, post your pics here!

Edit: Stupid title I meant wrapped, not wrapper.

Update: Thought I'd share my progress for anyone interested in doing this themselves. This is my first time wrapping, so far its exactly as I expected. Patience is key!

That looks incredible, how long has it been dipped? I was actually on the fence between dip and Vinyl, but figured I was up for a nice challenge

Wish i had the kahunas to attempt wrapping my car. I'd be afraid of wasting the $600 worth of materials.

I got wrapped in Avery's Satin Black, along with either Avery or 3M (I forget which) Carbon Fiber (weave based on BMW's M3 Carbon Fiber) on my trunk. Best investment ever. Picture quality won't show the CF well though.
