Red - 6
Graphite - 4

I am getting my material though my previous employer. I am using Orocal "Bubble Free" Colored Vinyl with a Matte Laminate to Make the Finish and Protect it.

Cost wise if you were paying a shop would be around 1500-2000 usually. However Material cost (All im spending) will be around 600-800, Including tools and spare material)

So far

Red - 7
Graphite - 5
Black - 0

What do you do for the door jambs, under the hood, and trunk? How durable is the wrap (I do 4-5 track days a year and don't want to turn my car into a garage queen)? As durable as paint? Is it reversable? I like the matte red as my first choice, and would consider it strongly if I could satisfy the durability questions and find a good installer in NorCal.
