evilonion Posted April 17, 2010 Report Share Posted April 17, 2010 tbh diy is easy enough.the key to a decent wrap is preperation... ive gone a bit mad with mine and its made up of about 10,000 individual triangle of various greys, silvers, blacks etc as i wanted a texture to mine rather than just printed camo... its also got a twist in that its made up from various shapes, colours, and naked sillouettes of women lolIts definatly a love hate car, but i think once the carbon vinyl roof and bonnet are done and the other planned mods it will be a head turner.If you want to wrap your own car i will be creating how to videos very soon...but my main advice is take whatever trim and windows off that you can, including plastic liners etc... and clean it thouroughly... then go over the whole car with a solvent cleaner like meths... i use preptone.rather than do the whole car in one swoop i would suggest a diy person to do one panel at a time... its much easier to handle that way.I can supply full kits if needed.

evilonion Posted April 17, 2010 Report Share Posted April 17, 2010 at £300 it sounds like he is just covering the cost of material... so i'd say thats a very good price! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
