Today, I begin vinyl wrapping my red 2013 ft86 with KPMF K75500 Metro Satin Superior Lavender Vinyl Wrap! It's a beautiful non-glossy, pastel purple that cost me less than $600 for 55 feet - which should be just enough to finish the car - so long as we don't make any mistakes.
This is part one of applying vinyl, but my 7th video on the Subaru BRZ. To see me purchase, repair, drive and of course, prepare the car for vinyl... check out this playlist! • This Single Modificati...

I love that goherping has become a car channel! Went from my favorite reptile videos to another relatable hobby also love seeing this stuff from someone that doesn't initially know what they are doing its actually quite refreshing.

Where did you buy your wrap I'm looking to wrap myself for the first time and how much wrap did you buy 15yds ?

@GoHerping 4 ай бұрын

I get my stuff from MetroRestyling - but there's a handful of good sites. I bought 55ft which is really pushing it for this car, ideally I would have gotten 60ft/20 yards to be safe. I'd suggest measuring out all the panels in advanced, and then add extra onto your order for mess ups!

was kpmf tough to do? would it be bad for my first time wrapping?

@GoHerping 4 ай бұрын

i really like it, hard to tear/snap (i found 3m wasn't as strong), and yet not too thick (hexis was so thick) and it seems to be less tacky than others. so it's easier to pull up and adjust but it's also easy to pull the whole thing off so we used a lot of magnets and tape in the process
