FNBADAZ06 Posted April 8, 2011 Author Share Posted April 8, 2011 I wonder what it would cost to have a whole car wrapped but in say.......matte white. I suspect a couple grand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOXXOH Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 I wonder what it would cost to have a whole car wrapped but in say.......matte white. Glad you mention this. I was trying to clean off all the tar and road grime from the lower sides when one of the grandkids offered to help. Well, he got it off alright with the aid of a scotchbrite pad. I've always liked the look of the '95 Indy pace car with the lower half painted white, so maybe I'll try this wrap deal first. Could one of you expert photoshop guys fix up this pic like that for a preview? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FNBADAZ06 Posted April 8, 2011 Author Share Posted April 8, 2011 Very nice! I have a set of racemesh screens for the side vents. I wonder if they can be wrapped. You mean the bezzled part I assume. I'm sure it could be wrapped if the screens can be seperated from the bezels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z06_Mir Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 I wonder what it would cost to have a whole car wrapped but in say.......matte white. The boyfriend is probably going to wrap his GTO matte white. As far as if we're going to do it ourselves or have a professional is undecided. The material is fairly inexpensive but the labor time is crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awlittle Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 That wrap on the vette looks sick and F40s always look good but that one is killer. Since I'm from Georgia, I love the Dukes of Hazzard scheme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could one of you expert photoshop guys fix up this pic like that for a preview? I thought that would look like crap, but its not half bad. I would advise against it not because of the color choices tho. This carbon fiber wrap is "thick" and you can see the seam where it stops. It would scream hokey. The rules with this Di-Noc or 1080 is this - no clear coating. the moment you put a layer of glosss; it look fake. real fake. going down this road it will be a "dry carbon fiber look" - No seams. whatever you are wraping make sure the edges are tucked out of sight.

I agree Chad, that it's not half bad. The half that's not bad is the top half, when combined with that color bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z06_Mir Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 The C6 doesn't have the definite body lines of the C4 which is why it would look like crap IMO. How much was the roll of it? I need enough to do my splitter is all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need enough to do my splitter is all. Did you get a ZR1 splitter ? The vendor did the wrap for me, at $110.00 . material ran $4.50/sq ft and there's a lot of wasted material when doing a splitter in one piece (I'm told).

I need enough to do my splitter is all. Did you get a ZR1 splitter ? No, I want to wrap my stock splitter, or attempt to.The hardest part would be the small pieces of plastic that go up and down if you know what I mean. I would love to see a real carbon fiber option for those of us who like the OEM Z06 style splitter. I'm not a fan of the ZR1 kit unless it is the full kit.

ANTI_VENOM Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 carbonfiberfilm.com I have been planning on wrapping my roof and halo with this for a while. They say they have good experience with clear coating it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping it holds up better to the road debri that seems to pit and chip my other splitter's within months. My Katech was clear bra'd by Wishbone which kept it in great condition. I'm pretty good about speed bumps and drive ways, but you're right, I hope it's durable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
