Man you did a really good job. It looks professionally done. Why didn't you do the door handles?

I didnt do the door handles bc the truck had a pinstrip on it before i wrapped it so i figured the handles black would contrast it like the pin strip and it goes with my wheels and mirrors. Thanks i do detailing and i experiminted with my truck bc im thinking about vinnyl wrapping cars as well.

So 1 role was enough to do your whole truck? What did the role cost?

Wonder what the Yukon would look like in a matte red/maroon...

The roll i had to get for a tahoe was 75x5 and i have about ten ft left over. I think matte red would look sweet. Go to youtube and check out the matte red nissian gtr they did its epic looking. As for cost i dunno wat to tell you bc the place i bought mine from hooked me up a bit so im not sure wat it cost for the general public. I could sell you some? Lol

Hey also make a matte clear vinyl so u literally can make any color matte by applying the clear matte vinyl over it

My favorite thing about vinyl is the fact that it has 5 yr warrenty aginist weather like sun and stuff, so it protects the original paint and looks good doing it. And wen u take it off it doesnt mess up the paint and leaves no sticky resido likes stickers.

So do you have to disassemble a lot of the truck? Take off the door handles, roof rack, side mirrors, etc?
