I was interested in attempting to wrap my car but of course I wouldn't go all in at first I was thinking trying my roof first. Has anyone on here tried to wrap their own car and if so how hard.

I wrapped my front lip in vinyl.
It had a lot of aggressive curves so it wasn't ideal but turned out pretty good.

I was using some pretty nice stuff from what I was told and it was a little forgiving when stretching over curves.

Try your roof let us know.

I wrapped my whole van (Ford Transit Connect)

I asked a friend to design and print my company logo and some writing onto a vinyl for me,and wrapped it myself, The end result was fantastic tbh. But my full time job is a "Decorator" and as a Dec i hang wallpaper day in day out, and with wallpaper comes vinyl images people like to hang as wallpaper. I never wrapped anything before and my Van was the first first. I know its completely different from hanging wallpaper but the concept is the same... I will post a pic here later when i come home.

I wrapped parts in my interior. It was alright but some parts with a lot of curves was a bitch even with using heat.
