3M 1080 vinyl. You don't need much but that depends on your wrapping skills. Take a look around and see what deals you can get on it. If you wanna see what it looks like in gloss black, take a look at my build thread.

First of all, to do a proper job you need to remove the trim pieces from your car.
That's the only way to get the vinyl to wrap neatly around the back side.
A hair dryer or heat gun also helps conform the vinyl to complex shapes and makes for a tight bond at the edges.
Practice makes perfect - I got much better after making a few mistakes and rewrapping pieces that I didn't like the initial result.
Start with the simplest trim shapes and progress to more complex ones as your skills improve.
Here's a few videos that may help.

Thanks guys . I didnt use primer and even though i went around the edges it keeps coming up . The wrap itself looks good but some of the edges keeps coming up especially on the cigarette lighter cover.
