It is the way to go. Paint is great, but super expensive. Doing a 1/2 wrap is well under half the cost..

How much would something like that cost? I've installed vinyl before, but not big sheets... Plus i don't have a garage and obviously winter is almost here..

i would have to measure. But not as much as you think. You would have to do it in the heat. Have a friend with a garage.?

Probably could find one. This color red is good but sucks at the same time.. Its really hard for me to vision what it'd be like... i want it too look clean also, not just put together...
