Does anyone here have experience with this or have wrapped their vehicle? I'm wrapping mine next week and want to know what to expect as far as difficulty.. Thanks

No experience.  I can't put a logo on without a bubble lol.
I know I would let an experienced pro do it so it looks like it was painted.
Most sign shops do them now.

If I paid a shop to do it I might as well just get a paint job

I assumed if you getting a wrap its a custom rad set of graphics that would very expensive to paint.

Are you wrapping your vehicle in a solid color vinyl?

A small car like a Mini looks pretty easy, but something huge like an H2...not so much.

I would buy the correct tools and not cheap out on it. 

Good luck with this activity.  I am interested in a report and some pictures.

Have you bought the wrap yet? A friend of mine won the Ultimate Jeeper contest at jeep beach a few weeks back. He has a $650 gift certificate at activegrafix.com he is looking to sell for $400

Need before and after, but even then it will be difficult to see the quality of your workmanship. 

What does thou think about the results?  That's the only opinion that should matter...well, if your single.
