    Have you wrapped anything before? If not you may be biting off more than you can chew.

    I wrapped the hood on my kia Optima and it took 3 attempts... after the 2nd I contacted a shop and had the 3rd attempt done professionally.
    Was a waste of time and money.

    Just my opinion... its its harder than it looks.

    yeah it sucks ass if your not familiar with doing it or haven't done it before. definitely not the easiest diy job especially if you want it to look good. tried it once, never again.
