    Just finished up wrapping my truck this weekend. I wanted to protect the paint, while also giving it a unique look. The color is called Midnight Sand metallic by Avery corp. I purchased 75' roll ($550) and had just enough,( just in case anyone else wanted to do the same). What do you guys think? Worst case scenario, I can peel it right off:D. Enjoy

    Was that your first time working with vinyl? Looks great, If I was confident I could get it to look like that myself I would do the same.

    Looks awesome! Love that color. How long do they say it lasts and how well does it hold up to mother nature and repeated washes?

    This thing looks mean. The custom grill is a nice touch.
    Do you plan on leaving the rear bumper chrome?
    Looks great either way.

    Holy SH*T that looks awesome. how tough was it and how perfect is the job? I am imagining bubbles in the little nooks and crannies where perhaps it didnt stick well.....

    I've seen a tacoma fully wrapped in clear bra, and it that case there were no bubbles or problems. You couldn't tell it was there. It held up to brushy trails and stuff amazingly well too.

    I'm still not sure how well it comes off, but it looks great anyway!

    Love the look! Been wanting to do this to my Tacoma, the Texas sun is brutal on the paint. How long did it take and how complex was the job? How about link to the material?
