with 2 people.. no not really

Remove the sunroof and the roof gutter strip thingys, (the black strips either side of the roof)

makes it a whole lot easier, only "Tricky" bit is along the windscreen

have a look on youtube for vinyl wrapping guides :y:

thats not a standard colour is it?

If the sunroof and windscreen are already removed, then you have no issues!

How much have you been quoted for the paint job just out of interest? black original colour?
