4th gen wrap cost with pics.

I was quoted $4,000 to wrap my 02 SS in Evolv Metallic Orange electric with the roof and t-tops being wrapped in carbon fiber 6d film. Also it appears he's having trouble on the SS hood air inlet area. Id love to see some other wraps and hear costs. I'm sure I'm going to have to battle to get the kinks ironed out of my wrap job. It is supposed to be complete tomorrow. Being said, lets see your wraps / costs.

Good choice on the color, looks good in the sun for sure. And I like what you did with the tops, it’s a good compromise without being tacky

I remember when wraps started they were $600 for a good wrap, It’s crazy what they are charging these days but I guess everything is expensive now. Either way worth it.

Have you coated it with anything yet?

From what I can see in the pictures it looks fantastic.

Honestly after further inspection, its a mediocre wrap at best. I got another quote from a different shop to redo it and working on getting a large portion of my cash back from the first shop.

Like most wraps. No matter how good they’re applied, film always has that orange peel look to it. For what they cost, paint all day long.

We are changing the color to 3m gloss firey orange. He going to cover the cost of the re-wrap. The vivid just doesn't stick right on a lot of these bends.
