I spent the last 3 days not buring my fingers with a heat gun... black 2020 Overland vinyl wrapped in 3m 2080 M217 matte metallic blue. And a haulk offroad tailgate emblem.

This was the first thing I've ever wrapped other than my phone screen. I think it went pretty well. The hardest part was the A-pillar covers. All in all I'm super happy with it

Very cool and great work. Was always curious about these and how they handled rock chips, sap, and other paint-related nuisances

Me too, I'll do an update after our summer roadtrip. But anything is better than black, i swear i could scratch the clear coat by breathing on it.

Thanks!!
I was told that jeeps were super hard to wrap and now I see why. I liked the look of the hinges being black but also they would be SO HARD to wrap!!

Do you have any shots of it from the side? I have been curious about wrapping my top part of the cab to make my sting grey all black on top. Basically I'd black wrap everything that you didn't. How hard do you think it would be for a newbie?

Thinking about having mine wrapped as well. Not sure I could do it myself as you did. Great work.
Also, as mine is gray, I would have to do something about the hinges. Gray metallic hinges in any color will look beyond ugly IMHO.

I think the top would be kinda hard but i have faith in you Coach. Patience and a buddy makes the work way easier. Also i used the 3m 2080 because it is SO forgiving
