    I can only imagine how hard it must have been without the air release. I vinyl wrapped my eye lids in low quality vinyl, i almost lost my mind. Had to use water like crazy and push out lots and lots of bubbles. Even used a pin to pop them lol. I think I finished 2 panels on the car with the 3m 1080 faster than I finished my eyelids lol. I'd possibly be looking to pick up materials for a better price than what I'm paying here. I got a good deal on the roll but I know it can cost less.

    Tuned, tucked, slammed and rolled.

    do a couple of other jobs i promise you it gets harder but it gets more fun for sure if u have the patience for it, which it seems like you do. PM me ill help you out with my know how regarding prices etc... its easy now adays with rapid air.. i did it back when the only vinyl was Di-noc and water application... that was hard...
    Now we have done everything from alligator to complete chrome and gold.

    Thanks I tried to be as detailed as possible. If I'm going to do anything at all I'm going to try my best to do it right. I've got a crazy amount of people around me who want me to do their cars now lol. I enjoy it so much I think I'll start doing this on the side

    I wrapped the stand separately because it can come apart from the actual mirror. I'll snap a pic to show you

    but what about the bottom peace where the hand is? the actual stand, im curious to see how you did the seam, or is it seamless? i always battle with those things, i had to do a s2000 one time with very similar mirror and i had to take it apart completely. to get it without a seam, and the s2k doesnt have plastic bezzle around like yours, you got lucky yours does.. makes it look that much more neat...

    Here's the front. Trying to get good angles so you can see the shape and colour better.

    Yea the primer right? I used it around all the tighter spots and around all the edges. Here's a mirror.

    Took me just under 2 hours, it was sorta what I expected. The front bumper and mirrors were a huge PITA
