GMS03 is infamous around these parts
From my point of view, it claims dark wheels.

I know you sold the car, but can you give me some pointers on how to wrap door jambs.
Also I have DB9 Volante how much wrap material I should buy? 60 inch width

There's really not much to say. It takes a lot of practice and skill. You will need to take the door cards off as well as the door lock bracket, weatherstripping and sill plates in order to cover everything. Also, you'll need to learn how to make proper seams because there's no way the vinyl will go around the rounded corners at the bottom back of the doors.

Call the guys at Metro Restyling to get suggestions for how much material you need. If you're doing this yourself, I suggest that you buy a small quantity at first and practice on a few panels to see if this is something you really want to get yourself into.

I will tell you that it's not easy.

Fantastic job on the wrap. Looks like it came that way from the factory.

Can you photoshop some of the pictures and point arrows where you created if any seams
Particularly in door jambs.
Also if you can point me to how to remove and reapply badges, logos and decals.
I know basics like use hit gun to loosen the glue then use may be dental floss to cut the glue and remove it.

Which glue I should use to reapply badges? Name of the product or link will help.
I am in preparation, planning phase but have already installer as back up.

Thanks.
