Im not sure if the OP said anything about CF. Are you asking will it be easier to do it after you wrap the rest of the car? If you wrap the car first and then the parts by themselves and add them on top it will look better. It will also allow you to continue the wrap under/around all of the edges so it wil last longer.

I would wait until all the parts come in. Take off the factory parts you will replace. Wrap as far under each area you can. Wrap the parts. Then apply. Drill your holes first.

Edit: Just noticed you drive a 40th! Why cover up the amazing and rare color?!

Yes I forgot to mention that the kit will be in CF. I agree the 40th color is really nice, but I have always wanted a white car with red interior. I have been a fan of that combo since I was 16. And 10+ years later I finally decided to do it.

The thing is if I wrap the car before adding kit then I'm afraid that the kit will "damage" the wrap under the bumper/side/rear diffuser area. On the other hand, if I wrap the car after adding the kit then I'm afraid the wrap won't "fit" as nice.

Anyone has this experience that they want to share?
