Hey guys ,

Dunno if any of you heard of this company yet , but its popular here in dubai. I was doing some search over the internet and found this LS with black foil:

There are two other galleries regarding all the cars they foiled.

Gallery 1 ( Car Design Foil ) :

looks to me like it's analogous to a paint job, but with some sort of sheet that's covered over top. Full body decal?

It's just a colored version of the paint protection film. I don't think I'd do it to my LS, but it's a cool concept.
