Okay Mike, I was just looking locally, but apart from one 5 mins away from me I can't see any near you who do wraps.

Cheers  :happy2: dont think there's enough there.  Well I dont knowanything about wrapping.  If very discreet joins are possible I could get two lengths

Think id have to leave it to the pros

I am sure the seller can send longer lengths, just email him and ask what size you need dude as they have it on a large roll!  :driver:

you could always compare the cost of racoon wrapping it vs buying the vinyl and giving it to a specialist to do, fyi most sign/decal appliers who wrap commercial vans and vehicles should be more than capable of wrapping a splitter, there will be a few local too  :smiley:

you could try using water transfer, looks good and a whole lot cheaper than wrapping  :happy2:
