This guide covers wrapping the trunk of a white 2013-2020 Subaru BRZ using a two-piece method. The video demonstrates how to use knifeless tape to create a clean seam along the rear panel. Wrapping a 90-degree trunk in two sections avoids over-stretching the material and eliminates tension that could cause wrap failure.
Step-by-Step Trunk Wrap Technique
When you two-piece a trunk, always install the material from the bottom up. Working upward ensures the final overlap seam faces downward, preventing dirt and water from settling into the edge. When working around a wide recess, bridging the vinyl works well because the panel offers ample surface area for strong adhesion.
Follow these steps to complete the install:
- Lay down your knifeless tape along the planned seam line.
- Position and glass the top piece of vinyl across the trunk.
- Squeegee the air out from behind the vinyl, starting from the center and working outward.
- Pull the knifeless tape line to slice the film cleanly.
- Peel away the excess material and inspect the finished edge.

FAQ
Why should you two-piece a car trunk with vinyl wrap?
Wrapping a 90-degree trunk in two pieces removes excess tension and prevents over-stretching. This stops the vinyl wrap from failing or lifting over time.
Why should a two-piece trunk wrap start from the bottom?
Installing the bottom section first ensures that the overlap seam faces downward. This direction keeps dirt and water from collecting along the seam.
How do you cut the seam on a two-piece trunk wrap?
Apply knifeless tape along the planned seam line before laying the vinyl. After squeegeeing the film down, pull the knifeless tape to cut through the material and remove the excess.
