Just out of curiosity, could you send me a few photos of how the wrapped the door handles and the trunk/spoiler?
I'm thinking of having my car wrapped in the near future.

Thanks

Is this just the exterior or did you also do everything else including going 2WD?

I'm also curious to get more close ups and pictures of the wrap. So far looks great! How close is the color to actual painted Mexico Blue? Thx!

I had Protective Film Solutions wrap the car. I did not wrap jams because my car is black and it flows fine. I will post more photos
