How many rolls of 2 inch did you use? Want to make sure I have enough!
I bought one roll of 2" and used pretty much all of it. I also bought a roll of 1" and a roll of 1/2". I used a lot of the 1/2" for the tight areas (around headlights, grills, ect...) and barely used any of the 1".

I only did a single layer of tape. If there are areas where you want to double up for extra protection I would definitely buy two 2" rolls. But make sure you get that 1/2" as well.

After the 1400 drive what areas need a wrap.

I am planning Expel on the front, 1/2 hood and fenders. Any other areas would you recommend?
If you wraped a car what would you wrap?

I think all that is absolutely necessary is front, half hood and fenders, maybe a foot wide strip on the roof line and rear bumper behind tires (especially if upgrade to 315s).

Maybe also A pillars if you want to be 100% protected.

Thanks, except.....
Yah, I would do that :D. I changed the permissions and it should work now. I'll leave it free for all for a few days.

Race Red is obviously worth protecting! Take a look at the dirty Lightning Blue cars here:
http://www.mustang6g.com/forums/showthread.php?t=47617&highlight=Lightning.

Based on those splash patterns, I added Xpel to the rocker panels, door bottoms and the areas in front of the rear wheels too. And based on other cars I've owned, I did the full hood and mirrors. (It really sucks to watch a stone bounce off the front half of the hood, doing no damage, and then hit the unprotected part of the hood further back, leaving a big chip.)
