This tutorial shows a matte color shift teal purple finish installed on an Audi e-tron GT. The video demonstrates how to wrap a rear bumper from start to finish. The installer walks through the setup, heating techniques, and edge work.
Bumper Wrap Steps
To wrap the bumper, follow the process shown in the demonstration:
- Lay out your vinyl sheet across the rear bumper.
- Tack the material down in the center to anchor it.
- Lift the film on one side and apply heat starting from the center.
- Glass out that portion and repeat until the entire bumper is glassed out.
- Tuck the film as far into the edges as possible, then cut it down to shape.
Handling Wrinkles
If you get small vertical or horizontal wrinkles, heat them up with your heat source and work them out. Once all the air is out from behind the bumper, you can finalize your edges. Aura Vinyl vinyl wrap provides a cast polymer hybrid film with German-made adhesive for easy repositioning and fewer glue lines during installation. It also includes a PET backing for a smoother look with less orange peel.
