Love the gloss black roof. One of the more modern styling touches that I like.

That color is looking totally rich and it’s gonna be interesting to see how the black accents accentuate your hand. This color and the Avery Sunflower Yellow are on my short list of potential shapeshifting mods... I’ll appreciate all of your real world feedback and am totally not bored by any of this. Unfortunately, I have a crap clear coat dilemma to negotiate first, myself.

Bold colors for the win!

You'll need to sand it down and prime it you want to wrap it. Whatever you do dont buy Cheata wrap. It is touted as a great beginners wrap but it is awful. It's a little cheaper but I bought a roll and threw it away. Avery Denison is easy to work with.

wrap sizing

do you mind telling us what size wrap did you order? Where? I think I want to do this over the holidays.

Sincerely,
Mike

I ordered a whole roll of Avery Denison gloss orange from Metrorestyling.com

Heres a link but they are sold out. 🙄

https://metrorestyling.com/collections/avery-dennison-gloss-vinyl-wrap/products/avery-gloss-orange-vinyl-wrap-sw900-373-o?variant=37362059182249

Heres another option that I've used too. Easy to use like Avery but less money and I think they have it in stock.

https://www.cheetahwrap.com/60-gloss-orange/

This is also good. A little trickier to install but the gloss is better.

https://teckwrap.com/collections/wraps/products/high-gloss-with-top-coating?variant=39286729834607

Just dont use Vivid or anything on Ebay from China. Alot harder to install and can hurt your paint.
Hope this helps.
