    Well, I admit defeat. I ordered a 5'x2' and it wasn't long enough to get all the way to the license plate. Another strike is the inside of my bumper is rusty so it doesn't give the vinyl anything to adhere to. Plus apparently I'm not the greatest with vinyl. It wasn't TERRIBLE but I decided I'm just going to plastidip it with a coat of clear on top.

    I have enough vinyl left over to attempt my mirrors though, so I'll tackle that.

    Ahaha omg I'm an idiot. Grabbed the acetone instead of the denatured alcohol to wipe my mirror down. Ended up wiping away plastic. If this wrap doesn't work I'll just put some plastidip on it.

    I already went ahead and ripped it off. Now I'm going for the mirrors, which are a bit curvier but smaller so I should be able to manage.

    3.5 cans of plastidip and beer sound like one hell of a party

    Finished one mirror, and it's actually not half bad. Again, plastidip would be way easier, but I thought I'd give this a shot. Not super happy with the lip of the mirror, but oh well. I'm fine with it for now.
