cool,

I'm looking fwd to seeing this happen
First you'll lose your mind
then any free cash laying around
Awesome mods will bloat your credit limits
Acting like a crack addict, refinancing your home, farm out the kids......
You'll cry yourself to sleep, stuff like, must get new rims.
Lift it skyward or drop it like it's hott.
Important questions like, polished or chrome, will shadow you day and NIGHT.

Thank you all for the encouragement!!!!

THE Vinyl CAME IN THE MAIL TODAY !!!!  WOOOOHOOOO!!!!

I'll snap some pictures of the stuff, turns out the seller threw in a free 10'x 18" extra piece too!!!  What a sweet guy!!!!!!

So that brings up my ability to cover some 215 square feet of Avalanche!!!!   YIpeee!!!!

I'll grab some snap shots of the roll and so forth as soon as I can.  I travel back to Egypt on the 20th and will probably begin wrapping sometime near the beginning of September.  But so far I'll tell you this...  It's a lot different looking in person.  It's kind of soft, I'm worried about the ease at which it can be harmed/scratched.  Its VERY stretchable.  THe adhesive side has these "Channels" that make it so you CAN NOT have any trapped bubbles!!!   

Stuffs awesome.

Wow..I'm sorry for coming into this thread so late. Having had my AV wrapped three different times I may have been able to help a little.
When my truck was wrapped this last time it had a nice matte black look to it while it was curing. I like it alot.

I have mixed feelings on the top coat. It's good in that it allows you to wash, wax, strip, buff etc but it's bad in that if you don't put the two layers on exactly the same way there is a chance that can move in different directions as it cures and it will develop folds. This happened the second time I had mine done.

I can't wait to get home and take a look at the video.   Great job! People still can't tell mine is wrapped!
2004 Victory Red Z71 well actually it's yellow, no make that black. Yes, it's black...for now. :-)
