Well I would Maria but I dont think purple would flow down with all the other gray down by your feet... So its either gotta be black or gray whatever i wrap it in...

good luck wrapping that in vinyl! That is a lot of crazy angles and tight spaces. I would also suggest buying your vinyl from an automotive or marine upholstry shop. JoAnn's vinyl in my experience is tough to wrap as it is kind of thick. Please show some pics when done!
