    "The Matte Black finsh is vinyl wrap that not only protects the vehicle's original paint, but also gives it the F-22 Fighter Jet Stealth look."

    This made me LIRL!

    I like the look....but the fact that its vinyl makes me be like WTF!?

    you don't vinyl wrap a 60+k car and doing it to an exotic car is even more stupid; if you can afford a lambo, ferrari, etc then you can afford to paint it or order it the color of your choice.

    Sure you do, TONS of people are doing it now. Sure you can paint it, but then you would have to paint it again later to hold a real value, and it would lose value repainting it. It's like a huge bra.

    sorry dude vinyl wrap is just gay and why would you spend 1000's to wrap when you can repaint the car for the same price and possibly cheaper; you notice they don't have pix of the car close up in the spots that matter. why on earth would you want to drive a 60+k car w/ fake exterior that isn't 100% is beyond me.
