This installation tutorial demonstrates wrapping a front bumper on a Lamborghini Huracán. The video shows an installer working across the sharp curves and deep recesses of the supercar front bumper.
Bumper Inlay Technique
The installer explains that you should not just heat the material up and try to force it into a three-dimensional shape. Instead, break down ninety-degree angles into flat inlays before laying the rest of the bumper. Taking care of these steep angles first makes even the most difficult bumpers simple to complete.
Once the inlays are set, start applying the main sheet in the center. Work your way outward from the middle, heating and glassing the material until the panel is fully covered. Repeat the exact same process on the opposite side to achieve a clean, smooth result across the entire panel.
Film and Installation Support
Aura Vinyl produces vinyl wrap with a PET-backed finish for a smooth look with reduced orange peel. The cast polymer hybrid film uses German-made adhesive to assist with repositioning, pliability, and minimizing glue lines during difficult installs.
