Wrapping Lowers in Vinyl?

[SJorge3442]

Has anyone done this? While I'd like to paint my lowers to match my car, the bumpers both need a refresh and painted as well. I don't have the resources to do that, so I was thinking of maybe wrapping the lowers all in a gloss black vinyl. Has anyone done this on here? How much vinyl should I expect to buy? Seems like this should be a cost effective option, pending the amount of vinyl needed.

Just vinyl wrapped my whole car last month, lowers included. I would guess you'll need a 5'x15' piece of vinyl to wrap them all. the lowers arent too bad but do take some time. the corner curves are the hardest part.

Wow.
It takes true talent to wrap your car and have it looking good. I do ok on mechanical repairs but that wrapping shit is a whole other level.
I tried to tint my own window once and it was a complete cluster fk.

haha, yea it wasnt easy at all, took me about 60 hours total. I'm like you, good mechanically, but hadnt wrapped anything more than interior trim, which is a cake walk. my wrap job is far from perfect though, i dont know how the professionals do it!

They've done it enough times that they have figured out a method for it. Like window tinting, I'm sure there is a very good method.
