    Well my plan was to get the trunk wrapped this weekend by my trunk had other ideas. I decided to practice with a small piece so I would not ruin a large amount of vinyl to see how it lays down. The rubber blade worked the best for getting out all the bubbles with out snagging the vinyl. Unfortunately when I pulled off the vinyl it took off all the paint with it from the respray that was done before I bought it. So an hour with a plastic putty knife resulted in this and a huge mess on the ground.

    So i had some spare time so i decided to start working on the front flares







    Looks like it sticks out a little further then the rears





    I realized i forgot to bring my self tapping screws so i only had enough screw to do one side. So i decided to work on the rear some more for better clearance.

    What are the specs on your wheels? Like width and offset? I'm a little worried now. I don;t want the same thing to happen to mine.........
