Do it . I want to vinyl wrap my roof in carbon look but not sure if there is any one near me that does it
-
Where are you based? Going to get a quote tommorow :)
-
I would do it black vinyl.
Not a fan at all of the fake carbon wrap look, just looks cheap and nothing like real carbon.
-
Located nr Woking Surrey.... I think black Bonnet and roof sounds better been unsure about the carbon wrap stuff
-
You might have issues getting the Gloss wrap to stick to the black plastic on your lower bumper...
Mine is Painted being an Ed30, so isnt a problem..... Red with black gloss extra's looks good and a great combination imo..

I'd say go for paint rather than wrap :happy2:

God help you if you don't like it. At lease you can remove the wrap as a last resort.

My thoughts exactly

Mike, your car looks sick mate (in a good way). I would definitely be looking at gloss black although I like the carbon, black just looks classy, go for a wrap first and if you like it then you could get it sprayed.....the ED30 with the red/black combination looks stunning imo. :happy2:

Had a bit of wrapping done on my lunch :innocent:
Only a bit for now. When my magnets arrive its velcro off and wrap the section behind the number plate gloss black too :party:
