What is the benefit of wrapping it over painting it? If you get it wrapped make sure to have it done at a really good place. I saw Titan yesterday that was wrapped and I could still see the original white paint in the tailgate cracks. Other than that it looked sweet.

Benefits are, it protects factory paint.
And 5 years down the road when you dont like it, tear it off and go get a new design.

Agreed with reputable place. You get what you pay for

I did a partial wrap with 3M 1080 matte black vinyl... Not what you are looking for but might give you an idea what it would look like.

My local guy who is excellent quoted me $2,000 for a complete matte black wrap, I opted to just do the hood insert, lower sides, and part of the tailgate for now.





Very happy with the 3M 1080 vinyl overall... seems pretty durable, not hard to maintain.
