Was silver, now blue

We had some vinyl left over from another project at work, so I wrapped the sides in blue and the roof with chrome. The fenders and such are black PlastiDip. I did a really bad job on the hood and a few other compound curves, but I'm going to wait for warmer weather to patch those areas.

Was the chrome roof a style choice or did you not have enough blue?

I've been thinking about doing the same thing to mine. Do you know how many square feet of wrap you used?

I'm thinking about doing a wrap on my citrus Insight but want to keep the same citrus color. Any ideas which vinyl to use for durability?

I had to do at least one section in chrome to make coworkers happy.

I don't remember how much I used . the roll was 60" wide. Just measue the length of each panel.

The vinyl we had was Vivvid brand, which is apparently fairly stiff and tough.
