    Damn that is wicked, I would do that sh*t in a heartbeat if it wasnt to pricey. I wonder how glossy it is though and I bet when you get a rock chip then it makes a small hole in it, youd see the under color.

    lol, i do vehicle wraps where i work. they're making it look a lot easier than it actually is in those pics. Price wise, it'll run ya anywhere from $1,000-4,000, depending on the car and what's on the wrap.

    but it's cheaper than paint and it'll last for 5-6 years. and, your original paint won't get scratched.

    I have seen this used on race cars before. It is VERY strong and doesnt really chip. Up close, you cant tell unless it is peeling but if done by the right people, you cant tell.

    I would love to use that on a rally/run. That way when u get chased, peel it off and its like a different car.

    I wonder if its the same film that's used to cover the s2000 front windshield frame that's black. If it is, then its pretty shiny.

    There's a guy i meet that did it to Hondas and made them look like JTCC touring cars.

    He made an EXACT replica of the Jaccs Civic and Spoon civic. He said he ordered the wrap from Germany.

    Not as hard as you think.. we have our tricks.

    Nobody ever wraps into the engine bay. Wraps are just for aesthetics... not like a full paint job you would get at a body shop.

    wash it just like paint. won't bother it a bit.
    you can even wax it. actually, wax is recommended.

    I dont think anyone that would be showing their car would use this as a replacement for paint. I think the main objective is to protect the paint.

    can you PM me the name/location of your shop? I'm interested in getting a quote/timeframe for something along these lines.
