What's the cost range on a full single-color wrap?

I hate MATTE.


That 745 posted by Vivid is the worst color I've ever seen one. Great wrap job though


White Turbo's are the sexiest ones. GLOSS white. And if you are determined to go matte, then white there as well. Matte black looks like dark primer.

What up Dez... I have seen very few muscle cars (real ones.. not 2010 Camaros and Challengers with 22's) done in matte wrap... I am somewhat interested.. just got back from SEMA and saw 100 late model cars wrapped. Some looks good - some do not.

We have recently wrapped a new Challenger lime green. But older cars, I dont have any pictures. We can do it though.

Wow, vivid's price is pretty good. Dan, do you guys wrap wheel lips too? Ha, maybe an easy way to hide some curb rash and get rid of the chrome!

That would fail. We do have a partnership with a wheel repair company. They can fix your curb rash and repowdercoat 4 wheels for $400-$500.

Yeah, that's what I figured! I wonder how an electrical tape wrap would look!!

That's a pretty good deal for four wheels. Mine are three-piece though. Do you know if they would need to dissassemble everything to powdercoat? If so, I'm sure that would add to the cost a healthy bit.

They dissasemble the wheels and refinish the inside color and repair the outside and then remount your tires, no extra charge. If you want to powdercoat the outside lips, they do this for an extra $200 for all 4. Wheels are baked at no more then 350F to NOT affect structural integrity of the material. I have done SEVERAL of my own wheels and this company is very good.

I say go with matte olive drab. Do a search for "matte green Porsche" in google images for pics. Someday I will get mine wrapped in this color.
