matte black all by myself in a couple of days

so i bought a matte black roll from PUMPD and did this in a couple days which shows that one single person can wrap a car without help. it didnt turn out perfect but it was my first run. with a couple other people and the right chemicals your average person can wrap a car. i also got some BC coilovers with custom spring rates. these coilovers are amazing. the wheels are VMR V713 8.5" front with 20mm offset. rear is 9.5" with 22mm. they are 19s also. the stock rear camber is set to -3. i will post up more pics later. PM for info on coilovers.

the vinyl was $400 its the new 3m stuff and i used a home depot spray bottle with water and a couple drops of soap. i used a razor blade and an old gift card as a squeegee and a hair dryer as a heat gun. so a total of $400.

you should do it dry. No water is needed. i think thats why it didn't stick at the creases on the front bumper.
