Maybe start with smaller area to practice? Spary water under the wrap will help, water is easier to be pushed out than air. DIY is fun, the experience u gain might be useful in the future :-)

I have always buy wrap from this ebay store:
http://stores.ebay.com.au/jdmbestboy
very good quality, close to 3M.

Cheap wrap will fade and harden quickly, and leave glue when u take them off.

Can they be applied wet? Similar to stickers and coating the lid in a soapy liquid and then pushing the moisture out?
