From my understanding it is actually one of the hardest vehicles to do out there right now with the front bumper being the hardest part of the whole thing
Ironically, my bumper is perfect. They even used the STEK stealth satin PPF on the black trim.

~ The hood should be bulk ... if I recall 72" square (huge piece)... As for the bumper, Xpel pre-cut kit. My car is in complete Xpel pre-cut less the hood.
Thanks for the feedback. I’m really not that scared of the hood anymore though maybe I should be lol.
As for the pre cut kits, that anyone can buy directly, I was under the impression they all stopped quite short of body panel gaps and don’t allow for wrapping edges - is that what you’ve experienced? I’m not completely against that since 95% of the panels will be protected, but some of the shops have claimed they modify the pre cut templates to basically make them larger, to allow for the extra material to stretch or wrap where needed.
I keep hearing some shops that claim they bulk one piece the front bumper though I think it’s quite impossible to not have a lot of relief cuts.
The xpel precut retail bumper diagrams look…. really bad via pictures of it laid flat.

anyway, with your input and past experience you have convinced me to curb the notion of trying to make my own front bumper from a roll lol so thanks for that.

Here's the Xpel pattern kit for the Supra. Lots of pieces. The exposed seams are minimal imo... you're talking an 1/8" when seen in some areas. Near 100% coverage.

For a cleaner look, I didn't have the park sensors or side reflectors cut out (on the bumpers) for my application since those areas are flat. Sensors still work as normal.

Beautiful! I debating a full wrap rn and it appears its worth it. What was the cost if you dont mind me asking?
Update: you inspired me to go for the full wrap lol. FINALLY got it back and im digging the results. They were even able to buff out some of the older chips and scratches.
