I'm in the process of it. I've already done the precut partial front hood, 30" which goes up about 2/3rds of the way, using 3M Scotchguard Pro, for $200. Includes the partial front quarter panels to match the hood, and the mirror covers and door guard strips. The hood piece is oversized so I can wrap the edges. You can also order Suntek, less expensive than 3M, and buy insurance if you think you might screw it up and need another piece.I'm sure someone has. I am trying to figure out is it cost effective vs having an installer do it.
If you don't mind answering a couple questions, I would be grateful.
How much material did you need?
Where did you source the material?
Thanks
The badge is precut. That's how you line it up, you center the badge, then work your way out, removing bubbles and liquid.Thanks for the write-up. Lots of info.
I'm thinking that the hood would have to be pre-cut because I don't want to remove the badge, but other parts I would try to do myself from raw material. That is if I can source it for a reasonable price
Just did the doors last week. The hard part of doing the doors is that the pieces are quite large, making handling harder. 3 or 4 hands are ideal. My rocker pieces and front bumper piece are coming next week. I'm going to wait for a nice warm day to do the front bumper, because it'll need the most stretching to fit over the curves. I think the key is to center it, lock down the middle, then work one half at a time, very patiently.I might do it for the doors. But I’m getting the fronts done as we speak for $1200. Doors are flat surfaces so I think an DIY would not be bad to do myself. I did headlights on my gti a few years ago and it was easy. It’s the curves of the bumper that make me have second thoughts.
Curves? No. As long as any bends are linear, it’s fairly easy to wrap. It’s when bends are in two or more directions, a compound curve where stretching gets tricky. The front fenders, mirrors and front and back bumpers have compound curves, and thus are much harder. The doors are fairly easy, but the pieces are large. A 3rd hand would help a lot, just to keep it positioned, and to peel it without it folding on itself, or touching the ground. I raised the side I was working on, to help with the install.Did you do a stretching on the door? The pros that did mine did a pretty great job but they said they had to stretch it to make the curves.

Here are 4 pics. If you look carefully, you'll see I came up a little short on the front edge of the door, since I wrapped the open-ends of the doors. I don't think the wrap was meant to be done that way. All-in-all, it came out well:Can you post pics of the results door ppf
