    How much vinyl do I need to fully wrap my car?

    The best way to calculate how much vinyl your vehicle needs is by this simple formula below. Note that all vehicle vinyl films we sell is 5 feet wide.

    length of your vehicle x 3
    *for the two sides & the top of the vehicle from front to back
    + extra for bumpers and mistakes
    *5′ to 15′ depending on complexity of car and your skill level*
    = closest roll size available
    *always round up to the closest roll size available

    Example:
    a Sixth generation Ford Mustang (2015-2023) is 15.7ft (188") long:
    15.7ft x 3 = 47.1ft
    = 47ft + 10ft (for difficulty of wrapping a Mustang)
    = 57ft
    purchase a 5ft x 60ft roll
    *the closest roll size is a 55 & 60 feet rolls so round up to 60ft

    ♦ Small size cars can be fully wrapped with 50 to 55 feet / 15 to 16.8 meters of vinyl.
    example of vehicle sizes:
    Audi A3 & A4, BMW 2 & 3 series, Mitsubishi Lancer, Subaru Impreza, VW Golf & Beetle & Jetta, Hyundai Elantra, Nissan Sentra, Mercedes C-class

    ♦ Midsize cars can be fully wrapped with 60 to 65 feet / 18.3 to 19.8 meters of vinyl.
    examples of vehicles:
    Chevrolet Camaro, Corvette, Ford Mustang, Ford Fusion, Toyota Camry, Honda Accord, VW Passat & CC, Nissan Maxima/Altima, Audi A5 & A6, BMW 5 series, Mercedes E-class, Hyundai Sonata,

    ♦ Full-size cars; mid-size SUVs, pick-ups, mini-vans & small vans need 65 to 75 feet / 19.8 to 22.9 meters of vinyl
