After trawling the internet for carbon bits.
I can't get them from where i want them, so i'm going save cash and wrap.
Has anyone had their car done? Recommendations?

Are you wrapping the whole car or just bits?
Few peeps on here have wrapped (or have had wrapped) their cars recently, looks the nuts when done well. Contact Monte If I were you.

Wings. Roof, front splitter and lower part of rear bumper.
I'll drop him a line thank you!

First tip I have, don't go cheap.
The main issue is the quality of the person putting it on, anyone can put it on but it will make a huge difference to how long it will stay on for.
I went cheap when I had my whole car done, and because of it I have now paid for it to be taken off and be redone via someone else much better.

(only image i could find atm )
This is what it was like. the handles were done poor. mirrors pealing up. around the rear bumper was crap.
Even though I had this experience it hasn't put me off at all, I know that when its done properly it will last and look much better. next week i will show you what it looks when its finished.

Here it is now. A huge improvement in quality. This is a metallic matte blue which is a great colour!
