Cool.
If you warm up the creases with your hair drier you may be able to soften them out.

Sods law she'll end up being made to buy you a new one.

No problem mate and the grille seems to have come out really well and looks great. Deffo not as easy as you think it might be as Deano says. And patience is the key. Was on a good few hours just doing a bonnet the other night which was an awkward shape but the finished effect is worth it in the end Smile

I did a few bits and pieces on mine with varying results.
Small, flat parts turned out ok but anything large or seriously
curved is a right chew on. You deffo need lots of patience too
lol I think I wasted more of the stuff than I used. The back of
of my phone looks good tho lol

It's much easier when the part is fitted to the car- that way you can use more force when streaching it. If it's not on the car you could do with about 5 arms! One to hold the thing your wrapping, one to hold he heat gun, two to pull and stretch the wrap and one to use the squeege to apply the wrap!

We've developed a method of wrapping a wing mirror that takes 3 people!!! Lol

We charge £25 per mirror (which is far too cheap given the time & effort it takes, but people wouldn't pay more than that!)

hope you are all remembering that when any vinly wrap is changed shape from its original flat state that you have to heat it to over 100 degrees c to stop it popping back out
