You should do it yourself it's really not that hard. Doing this takes lots of patience and some practice. My first few pieces didn't come out so well so I just redid them.

Some items to help you wrap easier:

Isopropyl Alcohol- To clean pieces
3M Primer 94- Applied to edges and curves so vinyl stays in place.
Application Squeege- Helps with getting vinyl down in tight spaces and gets out any air bubbles.
Exacto Knife-Needed to cut away vinyl in tight places
Hair Dryer- Needed to stretch vinyl over curves and edges.
