Default 3m black brushed metal wrap

3m 1080 series brushed metal black. Wrapped it last year in another color: https://ls1tech.com/forums/paint-bod...pping-car.html

2nd attempt went much faster.....about 25hrs and all of it done with no assistance accept the rear bumper. I am a big fan of this color, hope ya enjoy and sorry for the crappy cell phone pics

DAYTIME pictures please. not sure the brushed look almost makes it look like fabric, definitely different, I know I wouldn't have the patience to spend 25 hours on the exterior of the car.

The light refraction is definitely a cool effect, the thing that bothers me is it looks out of place on multiple panels

Any pointers going to tackle this myself

i feel this is something i'd have to see in person to really experience that "WOAH" factor. It does look cool and unique though.

thats alot of contours on the front and rear bumpers
Im guessing that was where most of your time is.
Did you use 48 inch or is it seamed?
