neo2810 Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Awesome wrap workmanship on that bike but personally I think it looks hideous. Too much. Just sections of it in carbon would have been much more subtle. I'm of the same opinion with a car. Why on earth would you want to wrap it in carbon? Bits of carbon here and there can look ok but the whole car? Dont do it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nevins Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 I can have a word with mike for anyone interested in having something done, I'm sure he could do a bit of club discount seeing as he gets trade from my car club, being a trader, so I think I could bargain with him.

dr_jekyll Posted August 27, 2010 Author Share Posted August 27, 2010 any body get any prices after . love the examples posted. would never fully wrap a car for road use but a track hore , yea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Vinyl wrapping, like laminate flooring, is today's in thing, but tomorrow's price reduction bargaining point. I was at a wheel refurbishers this week and there was a late model Mercedes coupe in there with one of these plastic bags stuck over it. To say it was shocking is an understatement, the car was totally ruined and looked simply hideous. Wrinkles, peeling, shoddily cut edges and a finish even an out of date orange would be ashamed of. I see a BMW M3 on track days that I assumed was painted in blackboard paint. But no, it has had an expensive vinyl wrap. It too looks like a back yard write off repair, finish wise.

caseys Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 It's sub £300. The trouble you will have is the main body, as can't get sheets easily that width and length. So you either have to do 3 pieces and carefully join them at the ridges on the roof or buy a huuuuuuge roll which will not be cheap at all. Or that's what we have found whilst a friend is looking at doing wraps as well as his tinting business. If we do find sheets that'll do the roof/quarters in one go will let you know.
