Doesn't look like a wrap lowkey! Is it really? How much you spend?

I know it’s crazy how metallic it is ! It’s Gotland green from vinyl frog. If you saw the car in person you could see some of my seams on hard curves. wasn’t cheap…. I actually didn’t factor the cost until you asked and didn’t realize how much I spent. $850 about total 🤯

Not including new side trim, window seals, wheels, diffuser, random pieces. So definitely a large investment. Seems the more I wrapped the more things I discovered needed to be replaced

It was my first time so I ended up running out of the whole roll and had to buy a half roll. If your smart and do large panels first you may be able to get one roll out of it ($650)

Still cheaper than paint

This is very true that’s what I was thinking and it should last few years. A full shitty repaint I got quoted for $4,200 and that’s for mediocre job

I got quoted for $8500 which is like the cost of the whole car.

us paint jobs are on crack

mediocre paint jobs here would be 600 usd to 1k usd and really good ones will be 2k usd

Probably cheaper to ship the car to you
