Those holes in the front bumper look pretyy bad(and obviously the gas cap), but other than that very nice!

Yeah the gas cap was just a test... it's going back to white

Purple and faded, but overall fair condition for the age of the car

How much does something like this cost?

I am sure it looks better than the purple and fading, but personally flat colors look better on higher-end cars.

This is a new company to atl and I've known the owner for years so with my help he did it at cost. Generally they only do high end cars and it ranges from $1500 to $2000 depending on the size and the angles. Matte colors are the cheapest of course.

This, I don't think I could talk myself into paying that for a giant sticker.

If you have a quarter of a mil car, your not going to repaint it your going to wrap it. I agree with DS, matte colors only look good on higher end or performance cars......

This was sprayed on, not "wrapped", correct? How else could you have over spray on the bumper vents.

Only the lips are sprayed (plasti dip)... the rest is wrapped.

It looks like the lip was wrapped. If not why do it have some sagging from underneath? Also, wouldn't It make more sense to take the lip off and paint it? That would keep off the overspray.

actually if you look close enough u will see the different shades of white. He didn't have time to finish my car since labor was free... so I came up with the plasti-dip idea myself and i'm overall pleased with it, but yeah it would have made sense to take off the lip lol. I just figured the plastidip would peel right off, which most of it did. Once he has time we will peel it off and wrap the lip later.
Seems like most ppl dont like it... but I like the overall different look it gives. Traditional paint would have been nice also, but y not be different.... anyways thanks to all for their feedback. :goodjob:

i like the wrap beside the spots that need to be addressed but for some reason i just hate the wheels on this car. im fine with oem wheels but something about the look of these just doesnt flow well when i look at it. I say enjoy it wrapped then repaint the purple.

Fully awakened and refreshed, i am now prepared to dissect this vehicle..... with love.
I am a symmetry maniac. I will notice if your picture frames are crooked the split second i walk into your house. Anything that isnt symmetrical is like nails on a chalk board to me. with that said, here's what i dont like......
your front lip does not flow with the body lines at all. Small wheels make the body lines even more noticeable. Your side mirrors and moldings are white but your door handles and gas lid are black..... that drives me nuts. I also dislike the front grille being white.
These are all very minor things that could be fixed in an hour, but as the car currently sits..... it is offensively ugly to me. When i first looked at it my reaction was "i like civics, why does this one make me want to punch my computer screen", but now that im awake, it is the lack of symmetry, both with body lines and color selections.

I saw you on the highway today. That gas cap lid really needs to be dealt with. It's an eyesore for sure, dude.
