The Car Wrap pics!!

Wow, I've just been to Drive & Shine's website to see the finished pics.

For a minute I thought you had chosen to go 2 tone (white / green) and was resisting wanting to say "I'm not sure the 2 tone effect works", then I saw the final pics!

In all green in the finished images it looks nice, pretty impressed.

Wow, just seen the video. Do you/they sell the vinyl or only fit it themselves?

 

[SlipStream]

Just another thought anyone know their colour range?

Guys - I will decline to answer any further on this thread due to the commercial aspect of the business. Whilst this is indeed my car I appreciate SCN's view on this being construed as "trading" or being commercial. I have PM'd the mods to work out supporter status and will not discuss the business aspects of this until I have recieved confirmation that I can do so.

dubnut that's understandable as the rules help to cover everyone including yourself.
If you do get trader status I'm sure the site can generate a fair bit of business your way

I reckon it was about half a mile away, knew before I even got close it was you then saw the plate.
Every car should be that colour in fog

Ok so its not my car and its a slightly different roof but this M3 was done today with a carbon fiber product and I thought the shots might be of interest to you guys!:

Looks brilliant, wish you weren't 600 miles away otherwise I'd be getting my roof and mirrors done in carbon!

What does this stuff look like over a very stone chipped bonnet?
Can you get thick enough stuff to cover up the inperfections to make it look like a brand new paint job?

the c/f is actually quite thick (relatively speaking) but you may still see minor imperfections where it settles into the chips the weave of this product helps with this. With a normal vinyl I'm afraid a stone chipped paint means a stone chipped vinyl as it is a thinner product and rally does show the imperfections below.

A bit of high build primer would help though !

Must say it's looks very nice and stands out from miles away (hence how I noticed it in the car park )

Ha !! that made me laugh mate!! I was just in town for a moment too and gave your car a good look over as its brilliant in that colour!! I never for a moment though someone would do a "spotted post"

 

[ross27]

Love the blue Cupra


Great job on the Vinyl!! How much did the full thing cost? Material and labour?

Heh, I noticed it on the way up the ramps and had to come back down to park next to you and take a look. Was so shocked to see it, although I guess it is the easiest members car to recognize.
