here's another and as you can see you can really abuse it and it doesnt rip.

If you dont want to try it yourself could still work out cheaper to buy it and get it fitted.

my mate just ordered a load of white 3m vinyl to wrap his e46 m3 and the reason he ordered it is because the videos on youtube make out that its the easiest thing in the world to apply and we had a go the other day and its totally impossible to do your self

Im pretty sure you shouldnt keep ripping it off like that! Surely it would ruin the paint and the vinyl would loose loads of stick?

Get real carbon or go home. Also, that 3M vinyl costs more than the real thing

Not a fan. If you have to do it just get gloss black.

I will be getting the roof done on my new White 3 series when it arrives in the 3m stuff. I was told by a couple of dealers that it is not recommended to apply to the exterior but some would.
