A local place quoted me $3500 for vinyl wraping my whole car that will last for 5years minimal. No idea if its worth it or not. I wonder if its so easy to F'd up when you get scratches or dings.

Pretty much all the high end exotics that you see flat black are wrapped- it's a nightmare to get a perfect flat black paint job, and even harder to make it durable. There was flat white wrapped range rover I saw locally that looked killer.

definitly understand that it would be hard to get a good paint job done or having to have the car done completly over to have any imperfection removed. lol

so wrap you say..

our cars are too classy for flat black in my opinion. It looks great on 240's but I think it looks gross on the jzz30.
