So your only cost was materials? Do you mind me asking how much that ran you?

Looks awesome, btw.

That and basic tools - a heat gun, thin blue painters tape, tape measure, 3M primer pens, 3M edge sealer and a squeegee with felt edge to prevent scratches to the vinyl (minor surface scratches disappear in the sun or heating it with a heat gun - amazing)

A little over $600 for 65' x 60" roll of Matte Blue & 8' x 60" of the Matte Black


Oh and two bottles of isapropyl alcohol for prep

LOL!!! Good question.

Not within a years time but yeah. I love a challenge and being able to look at my S and say "I did all of that" makes it worth it.

Getting ready to do my buddies car. We have worked with vinyl before but how did you go about doing the door handles? You completely disassembled them?
