+1 thats a lot free'er than 3k-7k.

You'll need to laminate the white or it will stain...that will almost double the price.

I got a roll of matte white off eBay for around $350 but it wasn't laminated. It was 5 Ft x 25 Yards (75 Ft).

I had my trunk wrapped and someone must have placed a cup on my trunk....now I have 2 rings.

Also the front center section of my bumper was wrapped and there are now water lines going down.

You're going to have to wipe it down religiously or it will stain. I used 303 aerospace protectant every time I washed the car and it didn't really help much.

I still use it on the CF Di-Noc I still have on my roof though.

Detailing Dynamics is the shit.

white is really hard to maintain with vinyl.

chemical guys makes a very good detailer/cleanser and protectant for matte/vinyl/clear bra applications, check it out..

3-7k for a vinyl wrapped car may be the dumbest thing I've heard in my life!!! You could have your car painted NICELY for 3k....
