Glacier frost mica or Flat black 3m Wrap for FREE!
 
I need everyones opinion before I look horrible on the streets!

Ive got a sponsor to do a full matte black vinyl wrap ( 3m ) on my is :woohoo:.



They will do everything and I will not pay a dime. The catch is to display " wrapped by A-Team" in some really insconspicuous places. :uh:


so if i do go with the wrap i am thinking about buying ISF style front and rear bumpers. only because my rear one has a big crack (hit and run :( ) and the front one is starting to chip from all the rocks,bugs,girls that hit my bumper :D
and someone did another hit and run on the front bumper :( (pics soon)


mine is a 2006 is250 awd glacier frost mica 5% full tint and black wheels!
so it would be a Murdered out LExus :D


Should I?
ps. quote from monster wraps from california was $3,500 (parts,labor) :eek2:

It's free why not... if you dont like it just take it off!

I never understood the high cost of vinyl wrap labor. $3500? I might as well dish out another $1K and get a total repaint to a color of my liking.

If you're gonna do flat, it better be able to pull it off!

Sweet... I would jump on it.

I believe the sponsorship also requires some appearances at car shows. How else would they get car enthusiasts to see their logo? You might want to double check with the sponsorship conditions.

Gustavo250 05-18-11 11:33 AM

^^ it could be for online pics or for catalogs

iRock 05-18-11 11:38 AM

ehhhh its a maybe for me....

How long you got to sponsor for them? and they probably do want you go to car shows if there are a lot in your area.... i have a friend that got a similar offer and the company told them they had to go to car shows. well the car mainly :D

Do it, if you're planning in modding your car. But stock, no.

Miggs 05-18-11 12:18 PM

The owner of the shop wants to meet next week and talk about it.
My guess as of now is for him to use my car for catalogs and his website.

Thanks for responding!
I will find out for how long it will have to be on my car!
and I really want a "murdered out" lexus lol but again the glacier frost mica is amazing!

Ill upload pics of my car and let you all be the judge! (pics ill upload at around 7pm cst )

opinions will vary, but do what ultimately matters to you.

HERBos 05-18-11 12:27 PM

if its free then why not..

is250va 05-18-11 12:31 PM

ehh my car is GFM so im partial to that.

KillaIS250 05-18-11 12:37 PM

Depends on what kind of look your going for in the future. Some mods just don't look right on matte black cars.

Here's a pic i found:

I guess it works on that car cuz its going for more of a tuner style. But if your going for a more Luxury/VIP look, i dunno about matte black on an IS.

MDOTM 05-18-11 12:40 PM

I wouldn't cause I LOVE my GFM but it's up to u and your look.

Miggs 05-18-11 07:24 PM

Just added pics, leave it or change it?

Silkky 05-18-11 10:20 PM

I say leave it. Why hide that pretty GFM behind flat black vinyl? :P
