Yeah haha. If i knew how to wrap my own car i would change the color all the time probably and mix things up. all my mods arent permanent and i have all the original parts. thats my big thing is to not do anything permanent to make a future part out easy and not hurt the value of the car.

Indeed it is. I like the aggressive style on cars.

Default Wrap

[QUOTE=Adam350is;8026160]Here's my wrap (no harsh comments please) i have a SFP, wraped in half matte black. tinted the headlight, foglight, taillight (with an eyelid). And yes i will get the myride diffuser wraped as well.
I paid 1000 to get everything i mentioned done. they charge about 3000 typically for the whole car. been 11 months like this and the attention is addicting and its a fun conversation starter. I do really like the orange. I like when we make our cars "Uniuqe"









Where is the shop located that did your wrap??

I got it at a shop located in Sherman Oaks (818 area code - here in los angeles), the company is called "Stickercity" their website is stickercity.com Hope this helps, if you mention my car and name theyll probably give you like 10% off.

ive had mine like this for almost a full year now, and no complaints the wrap has been a trooper. they say it can last like 3 yrs if its well maintained. I sometimes wash my car myself when i have time, but often times i just take it to my local handwashing place. as long as its not one of those automated car washes for like 5 bucks youre safe. the bristles on those automated one can scratch the vinyl. There is actually a treatment now you can buy for wraps to cure it and for prevention to the elements. i forgot what it is called but the cmompany i get my wraps done at sells it.
