I would buy a proper heat gun, even a cheap one will work, a hair dryer won't get hot enough quick enough and push too much air

Primer is important on edges and any hard to stick places, fender wells, door jams, hard to get bumper inner corners. But you can do a wrap without it as well...

I don't like the Tron idea, if the car looks like a wrap you'll get tired of it quickly. If it looks like paint you will keep it for a long time. My theory on anything done to a car is simple, it should look like it may have come that way from the dealer. All the big wide body and over the top builds are not for me. Liberty Walk is cool at Sema but I wouldnt want to drive one down a busy road...

And imagine you are picking up a girl for a date for the first time, is she going to look and your Tron car and think he's cool or is she going to run away...
That's true about the tron style. It will look too immature to do, especially if I drive the car around campus. I just thought it'd be cool because the tape blends in during the day, but at night is when it'll show.

If I do end up doing the Matte Blue Metallic, should I powder coat my wheels black or do you think they are fine. They look like this.

Black yet, but they need to be gloss. I'm not a fan of matte black wheels, they always look dirty.

Thank you everyone for thinking I'm an expert! I'm just another car guy with very particular taste when it comes to modifying cars.
