Does anyone how many square meters or feet of it takes to cover an entire focus hatchback?

quite a bit, last owner of my car worked at a sign shop and had it wrapped, cost about 2gs...

i work with vinyl every day and i dont know how much the exact cost is but for reference 100sq ft by COST to the person doing it would be 1500$ so id expect 2-3 grand to do it... but im not positive and i dont know the numbers on the size of the car... just rough estimates for ya

whoa.

thats way too much money to cover a car in vinyl. if you use over 100 square feet. I thought the average size car went for $500 full cover.

haha for like 3-4 k you can get your car repainted the way you want lol

**zx360** · 11-04-2009, 11:34 AM

but i dont know the sq footage of the outside of a focus... that was just the 100sqft #

im sure you could pm the guy on here who has his done and ask...

honestly, just paint the car. Vinyl is going to get surface scratches from applying it and if you are anything like me, its going to drive you crazy because you cant get rid of them. Only good thing is you can wash your car with a bottle of Windex haha
