Vinyl wrapping a grille?!!

Hey guys, i got a new grille in silver and i want to completely wrap it in 3M CF vinyl. I already have the vinyl and the grille, but i want it professionally done. If i do it; i will mess up real bad. Any clues on who can do such a job? regular mechanics? or someone special in particular.
Thanks

I have heard a lot of positive things about a guy named Don on the form that does really good professional wrapping. Try searching for him, good luck!

Go to your local tint shop or a place that does car wraps and see what they say.

Correction, Drove An '05 C230 Kompressor SS
with a heat gun, a sharp exacto knife, and some patience, I'm sure you'll be surprised with the outcome.
The 3M Di Noc is so easy to work with when heated, and it mends seamless piece to piece very nicely.
