So the wrap is complete.

I wanted to do a kindof unique look, so on the front bumper and rear of the car I decided to do a matte black to give it some different lines.

I am extremely happy with the outcome and cannot wait to see it with the wheels on and lowered a bit!

As soon as I get some pics of the seats ill post them up!

Here are the pics!







4x4 lol (wish they would have lowered it before this pic!)



I am on the hunt for an lp640 exhaust tip to finish it up.

Car looks nice, I dig the white wrap as the other color wasn't doing it for me. I bet those wheels set you back a pretty penny knowing what my forged 18's cost lol..

is it the price?
saving the orig paint?
easier?
or is this just the new thing/lambo thing? lol

and not ******* it at all... looks Fing amazing,, and the white definitely looks better.

few reasons.

I wanted a white car, and these are impossible to find white!

It helps protect the paint from sun damage and small scratches.

Comes with a 5 year warranty.

And for resale you can always peel it off if the next person doesnt like it.

And its fairly cheap compared to a paint job.


Thanks guys!

Not many cars can pull off white, but this is one of them. Can't wait to see pictures of it with those rims.

The white looks good. Now, it just needs the wheels and limo tint.

Didnt you ever see the movie cannonball run where the two chicks in the Countach pulled into the car wash and their top layer of paint peeled off to leave another color? He had it wrapped for this reason.
