    Remember Jason, keeping the printer ticking over is as important as installing 😛

    Nice job boys, well done.

    A bit unfortunate about the rear door handles and rear window frame though, the door handles makes the girl look like her nose has been stapled 🙁

    I know the handles are made of plastic, so would have been difficult to get vinyl to stay on them, but would it have been better if the frame had been covered?

    Yeah I agree with peter. Anyway you can get vinyl on the handles? Especially as you managed to wrap the badges!

    Hey guys,

    We don’t wrap anything that’s plastic or rubber. I’ve seen other jobs where they have gone over plastic and rubber and after a year it starts to fail.

    I rather put out a job I’m confident that’s going to stay put rather then trying to stretch vinyl or go over these areas. Even on bumpers I will patch in vinyl instead of stretching it.

    I agree the design could have been better laid out around the obstacles. I guess that’s the learning curve when your using vehicle outlines, designing, printing and then getting a vehicle delivered and trying to make it all fit.

    Hope we get better the more wraps we do.

    Yeah, a few handles and stuff are right in your way, but it’s still a job well done.
