This is my third time wrapping an e92 M3. First two times were my personal car. This third time is for my best friend's Jerez Black e92. For this wrap, I have been patient and taking my time. The results are 100 times better than my previous two wraps.
Big shout out to huyner328 for letting me borrow his garage and mdosu for showing up and providing moral support.
Color is 3M's Satin Pearl
Day 1: Front fenders wrapped. Took about
3 hours total including removal of side gills.
Day 2: Rear fenders and both doors/door handles wrapped. Took
7 hours total including removal and reinstallation of door handles (PITA).
Day 3: Planning to wrap side skirts and front/rear bumpers
Finished side skirts as well as front and rear bumper. Took
8 hours total including removal of front and rear bumpers. Sideskirts were wrapped on the car. The bumpers are the most difficult and time consuming due to complex curves and recesses.
Sleeping because we were up until 5am wrapping.
Day 4: Last day, planning to wrap hood and trunk as well as minor touchups through out the car. Took about
4 hours for hood, trunk, and rear spoiler.
FINISHED.
I hope this gives everyone a good understanding of how long a DIY wrap takes.
