If you parked that in my back yard, you would probably not find it for several days unless you acidentally ran into it. Good job.

So how is this holding up? It has been a few months now and should be showing wear if there is any.

So far, it has held up well. I do have one issue with the front portion of the front left fender where you have multiple curves in multiple directions that are very tough to wrap. The problem being that the wrap puckers enough to where I notice it.

The spare tire carrier rubber stop quickly wore through the wrap. I mounted a thin aluminum plate between the rubber stop and the tub to stop the carnage.

I drove around the deer lease a couple of weeks ago getting ready for the season. Lots of 6 and 8 foot blood weed and black locust trees, but no problems so far with gouging or scratching just yet.

At this point, I'd do it again.

That's a heck of a job. Not usually my thing, but you did a nice job with braking it up with the black sections

That looks great man, excellent work! Regarding the heavily contoured areas where the vinyl wouldn't stick, I've seen a few Grand Wagoneer restorations where the woodgrain vinyl was replaced with freehand airbrush work that turned out really nice....the black looks great and balanced out well though, I like it.
