Not to sound like a prick, but You forget wrapping/graphics/printing is my other job/income source

Its just a matter of choosing the color at this point and it'll be wrapped in a day!

None taken good sir. I remembered you did printing but i didn't know you did wrapping too. I've always thought about going this route when it comes to changing color wayy down the line.

doesnt have to be that far down. Fukn can tell you paint will cost $2k+ EASY and take, who knows how long.

I can wrap a car for half that and do it in less time! Heres the last work we did...Went for a classic woodpanel look

Good to know

so the girlfriend approved the 3m Matte Blue Metallic. I love it. Its similar to Jazz blue at a glance, but then up close its a whole other thing.

I feel guilty, still, to want to cover the JB paint, one of the few reasons I splurged and bought a AE. So Im glad ifound a similar blue with a different effect. Also like knowing Im saving some years on the paint.

Edit: Heres what it looks like...

Love that color! How long does the wrap last, and what's the upkeep on something like that?

[rodgertherabit]

the vinyl is at least a 5year vinyl and you just need to hand wash it. Ive had my roof wrapped gloss black since spring (thru the summer in MI/NC, it was HOT) and attracting tons of heat it still looks great!

[tom5191]

Hmm, not bad. After I get some body work done I'm looking into getting my car wrapped until I get money for paint. What part of MI are you in?

[rodgertherabit]

Im Currently located in NC, but I travel back to MI all the time. Could work it out.

what does it cost to wrap a car? like a 4 door golf. i was thinking a white digi camo.

N.C. huh... i was in North Point N.C. for thanks giving.

[rodgertherabit]

wraps for a 4dr would be anywhere from $1500-$2000ish. More if its full digital (printed/laminated/custom color) and obviously less for solid colors.

[truefire04]

wow, didnt think it would be that much... what would a color like matte white be?

we get forum discount...lol

[Shameless]

Cost is because you want digital camo haha.

[rodgertherabit]

yeah cost is just a ESTIMATE and is due to a Full Digital Print.

Matte white will be more along the lines of $1200ish.

[truefire04]

so what would you do, if you had to repaint anyways... would you go wrap or paint?
