How difficult was it to wrap the chrome trim under the window? I was going to spray it with plastidip and the glossifier cause I've never wrapped before. Looks good though!

@bushpilot did you use the 4" strip to do the expedition on the back?

I found a roll of 3M 2080 high gloss black wrap in 2" x 75' (its gonna take near 30 feet for the max).
The material is pretty forgiving - stretches w/ little to no heat, and can be "pulled up" and re-applied (to remove wrinkles or bubbles). The 3M material has a Saran Wrap covering on it - which allows you to smooth things out and get it in place and work out any bubbles etc - WITHOUT fear of scratching it.

I actually scratched the material (being too aggressive w/ the edge of a felt squeegee)...I thought I would have to re-do the section - but once I pulley's the protective covering off - it was fine/no scratches.

if you can tint a window this stuff is easy - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07N6MWCN6

I also have bought sheets of it in white and black (for wrapping the blue ovals), as well as a 4" x 75' roll (I may wrap the door frame in black).

Thanks for all the info! What are the thoughts about wrapping wheels?

I would hands down go powder coat for wheels...

But for sake of the conversation, with proper prep I got over 40k of not easy miles on a coat of plastidip. The wheels were powder coated gunmetal grey and I dipped the spokes matte black. Took it to the brush carwashes and all. Mind you it was a 17in wheel on 35s...
