Ever try to take a piece of paper and wrap it around three corners at once? Does not work well. The first 20 hours I spent trying to cut perfect pieces and making everything look good - waste of time for the most part. The next 20 hours I took the single sheets (18" x 32") and cut it once down the middle (9" x 32") then cut those into 4" wide sections (9" x 4"). Took each section and started throwing them into crevasses at that point. Don't get me wrong, for the large flat parts of the car, easy.
[Enter company here] will try and sell you some special tool or roller to lay the crap in the car with.....really only useful on flat surfaces (not many). Go buy a can of tennis balls (seriously), between the felt surface, air pressure and curvature they are the perfect tool for rubbing the material to the metal of the car.
This is one job you do not rush, will take 30-40 man hours. Time does not cut in half with two people, but it is certainly much easier with two. One person can be cutting sheets while the other is upside down backward preparing for kamasutra reaching for holes.
PM'd you my pictures.
