How much vinyl needed to wrap interior trim on e90?

As title states. I need someone with experience, not a guesstimate.

Vendors who do this: how much in general does it require and should I leave for error?

I'm having a friend of mine who is experienced in wrapping do this for me.

Thanks guys. And girls. And those in between.

If he's experienced, 5' x 3' will be plenty. It's enough to mess up on the smaller pieces....aka every piece except the center dash, long piece can be re-wrapped if need be.

So I got replies from two Different vendors that sell the vinyl. One said '2 yards' which I'm assuming is 2 square yards. And the other said 16 sq ft

???!

If the roll is 5ft wide and 6ft long (2 yards), it's enough to do 2 sets of trim....or a roof, or hood, or trunk.

Make sure you verify that the pattern is going the way you want before ordering. And don't order from metrorestyling.

Yo man where have you been? Lol we gotta meet up and catch up.

Yea, like I said before you can redo a couple of the smaller peices with 5x3 ft. But if you mess up on the long piece, you'll need to order another 5x1ft.

That's what I always think when people post these types of threads.

But telling them to measure it themselves takes the same amount of time to tell them how much they need.
