3M Vinyl Partial Hood Wrap

[menerso]

Check out my post on my matte black wrap for tips.

get a good knife, squeegee and a heat gun. The 1080 vinyl is super easy to work with. heat will stretch it if you pull on it and it will shrink it if you dont.

I got a quote today for $288, carrying it to the bottom piece as well. I told the lady, afterwards that they sell the same exact material, 3M Vinyl Scotchprint 1080, for $100 for 50sqft. She said that is impossible because only dealers can sell the product.... I said check their website

So, I am thinking about trying this myself. Any tricks, tools etc.. needed? I can make a lot of mistakes with 50 ft of material.

Got mine and another raptor done for 200 each. 3M and have had it almost 2 years with zero complaints.

I might buy the fabric, take it to an installer and let them do it and see if that saves me anything. I was quoted 1.5 hrs labor.
