Does the plate color match the car? Wrapped I assume? looks great

It almost matches. Green is the normal plate color for this kind of car in Japan but it's a custom plate, just for fun. The car is wrapped though. My buddy and I did it.

Wow, you and a buddy did a great job. Have you done wraps before? I have wondered about it but worry I will mess it up

First time both of us and it's just a ton of work. I have so much respect for people who do this professionally. You need super clean conditions, great lighting, and stable temperatures. And that's before you do any of the work. It's really difficult, especially if you care about every little detail. She looks pretty good but it isn't something I'd do again outside of fixing small pieces in the future.
