Like Tony (exodus_2) has said, this thing is really really addictive, so I also wrapped my phone...

We did an experiment about the wrinkle/shrink issue under heat... Tony and I put a small piece on top of my engine cover and two weeks later it is still in the original shape so I don't think it will wrinkle nor shrink under heat.

kevin this thing does not wrinkle at all once it's applied right it will stay there that way.
i was about to post some photo and complete detail on this thing but
im so busy i can't even do anything on my car these days.
after im done with 1 engine replace on maxima, lowering 350z, and jeff's car wrap. i'll be able to wrap some of my interior piece that i was planing on. i know peter bought 1 yard and wraped his wood trims and other stuff. it look0 sreally nice.

Thanks dude.

Well... Peter stood me up again so I just decided to do it myself with my crappy camera...

Let me know when u are going to wrap Jeff's roof, I'd like to see it.
