BMW X1 2014 DIY Vinyl Wrap

i would not recommend in any form or fashion to DIY vinyl wrap. I bought the best brand for new people AVERY DENNISON.. The weather didnt help in AZ i had to do one panel a day before the heat took over. The bumpers where complete hell.. one man job zero help.

It too way to long, you could do a whole car in 2 days easy. It took me a entire 7 days 4 hours per day.. day one started on hood but cuz of wrinkles i used it for the fender, day 2 did the hood, day 3 did 4 doors, day 4 trunk, day 5 front bumper, 6- roof, ,7 was back bumper.. cuz the heat it was 100 degrees by 10:30am i had to quite each day.(vinyl starts sticking).i also wrapped it outside. so lets say by day 5 i quite caring if it was perfect.. my only advice get a second person to pull tension as you lay/glass it.. the doors and hood look close to perfect.. the bumper look like ass but only from 1 foot or closer. i could always rewrap them but why bother. its not near as easy as youtube makes it but its doable if your not a perfectionist.
