So I had a few questions about vinyl wrapping. It seems pretty straight forward, at least on something easy like the trunk.
As far as prepping, I just need to clean the surface and take off badges? This is a coupe btw, so also take off the lights?
And then as for applying, I just need a heat gun and some type of squeegee? My understanding is just apply it like you would a screen protector and also when I wrap it to the backside of the trunk, how much do I need it to wrap around? Just enough so that it'll hold?
Should I also use 2 separate wraps for the top half (above tail lights) and another piece for the bottom half (below lights) or should I just use one piece. I would assume 2 to save vinyl?
Thanks for any tips and helpful advice you guys have
EDIT: This is just something temporary because my trunk is already getting sun damage and I like the look of the CF trunk. I like the look of the shaved CF trunk and will probably get that later down the road, but as for something now and the work required to get done, the wrap seems more practical
