Anyone ever DIY vinyl wrapped anything?
How hard is it to do?

I was thinking of wrapping my faded rear wing and the front bumper to protect it from stone chips, in clear

I found this thread

Pretty easy, I wrapped my car and never did it before. There are tutorials on youtube.

I wrapped some interior pieces in the 3m dinoc carbon and it was only a little more difficult on very sharp corner. A heat gun is definitely needed imo.

The spoiler is easiest to measure then cut vinyl on a table. Then install it.
