Vinyl Wrapping exterior?? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

PeaceOnesxWai · 06-01-2010, 11:06 PM

Has anyone tried or have some knowledge wrapping their whole car with vinyl wrap? Pics and walkthrough? Types of vinyl to use?

Ive seen alot of flat black wrap but wondering if any other color would look tacky doing this. Im asking because this is an inexpensive way to color your car considering a full 4ftx30ft vinyl roll costs around $60-70.

Where i got the idea

I like the flat black vinyl wrap... Some cars can pull off the glittery shit.

Green flake is so overdone though! What I see looking cool is gloss black with pink flake.

No homo.

I work at a vinyl shop. I wrapped my buddys GTi a while back, working on coming up with something for my drift car. It's not an easy task to do. Took about 10 hours to do and will normally cost over 1500$$ for a vinyl wrap like this.

If you can do it yourself, go for it. Otherwise the labor is almost the same as real good paint job, why vinyl wrap when you can have shinny balling paint?

Lmao. The questions you asked were all answered in that thread, no reason to start this one.

Legit wrap jobs are expensive and can even be removed down the line. The sparkle vinyl from eBay will take miracles to loook as good

vinyl is not as cheap as what people like to think especially when you want to make your car look "perfect"

bwagg is right takes a long time!
