The paint on my GS is starting to look a little bad... On average for a decent paint job, how much would it be for the whole car? (pearl white)

Or should I wrap it in a matte white?
Let me know your thoughts!! Thanks!

We have a 3 stage paint process so its going to be more then the average paint job... I'm guessing the wrap job would be in the $1500-$2500 range... member mlracing just got his car wrapped with a pearl vinyl and looks great.. PM him for info...

If you do the vinyl wrap yourself the supplies are about $500. I just ordered mine yesterday.

I'm assuming you're doing it yourself? I'm nervous to mess up on the curves and make a lot of air bubbles -_-

I've never actually done a car but I did wrap my bicycle. lol. If you use heat and squeegee from the center out you should not get air bubbles.

What color are you going with?

I had mine wrapped in 3M Satin Pearl White, looks realy good and many people think it's paint. Cost 1/3 the price of a colour change paint job!

Wouldn't recommend doing it yourself though, take it somewhere.. looks like a hell of a job haha

Hey guys,

There is so much to say about vinyl... Quick tip: make sure you trust any shop you take your car too... Many more shops than you think actually cheat their customers... Because once applied you cant tell whether its 3M, Avery, Hexus, chinese crap etc... But you will find out 6 months later when it starts cracking or peeling lol

Now: i know im not (yet) a vendor on here (im in the process of becoming one... And i plan to stick around for a long time... I am a professional dealer/installer of VViViD Vinyl... The vinyl is produced in Germany and shipped to our main warehouse in Canada. We also have warehouses in New York.

My site is still in the works: www.vip-wraps.com

But check out vvividvinyl.com and see more about us... We are a huge competitor to 3M and Avery...

My site also compares the vinyls side by side... So check that out too...

Now to get to my actual point... (JUST FOR CLUB LEXUS) i am offering 10% off any/all vinyl orders... FOREVER.

Im not trying to advertise as much as im trying to get the word out about a vinyl company growing 50% each month

Anyways, im done now.
