vinyl wrapped my own m2!

I vinyl wrapped my m2 in my own garage. I have to say, it was a really fun project as long as the coronas were kept cold. For many more photos, my instagram name is @greglollo Enjoy!! color changes with lighting!

Wow. Are you a first timer at this or a pro? Looks like a pro wrap to me. Well done!

My brain can't process the color very well in the first couple pictures, but it looks awesome.

could you please share the size dimensions of the wrap you used to cover the car? I'm planning on doing it myself also but need to know how much wrap to order.

Purchase the 60" x 25yds. You are going to have a couple yards left over; you will want extra if you make any mistakes. Make sure you ask for the 25yds to be a single roll of film and not multiple rolls of film; this will prevent any color mismatch between films.

Most wrap vinyls come in 60 inch wide rolls. You'll need atleast 19 yards/18m to cover an M2. But at about 20yds it's almost less expensive to order a full 25yd roll.. and you'll have extra material for when you mess up.

Did you wrap the roof in black vinyl? I am thinking about getting that done to add some more contrast.

I am guessing not as the door handles are black. It was likely a BSM.
