Default Wrap

Has anyone gotten their SC430 wrapped? I'm interested in experiences, pros & cons, and hopefully some shop recommendations and ballpark prices, particularly in the Los Angeles area.

I think that there are a couple of folks who mentioned it and posted pictures here in the past.

When you say wrapped, do you mean vinyl or PPF (Paint Protection Film)?

I'm also curious about installer recommendations/prices in the SoCal area.

I meant vinyl. I have a 2006, and the paint is definitely starting to wear. But I also Youtube'd up on polish/wax/compound/etc, so I may give that a shot first.

A full wrap can be a couple thousand dollars. Depending on how bad your paint is, sometimes wrapping on top of chipping paint will still show the imperfections through the vinyl.
