getting my decklid wrapped ..which color you guys thinkin?
will upload more pics later

 

Bright orange

 

lmao..too flamboyant...

 

to be honest, none of them go with the color of your car.

what color is your wheels?


if it were me, I'd wrap it in the darkest color available....to ya know match with your car


P.S. you DONT WANT TO BE like that G37......

 

the black carbon on the left

 

yea thats what im.goin with...black..darkest one..lol...just the decklid..nothing crazy..

 

im biased here but id go with the black carbon wrap.



i almost got the glossy grey one but i think the black looks the best on black cars.

are you doing it yourself?

if you are, prepare for a TON of headaches! lol
it seems so easy but the curves and the change in angle is a BITCH.
i actually had to make 2 cuts in the rear and line it up as best as i could.
its impossible to do it in one single wrap.

be sure you get the real thin and extremely tacky wrap.. there are some out there that are VERY thick and have a hard time sticking to small surface areas like the tips of the decklid.

if you get a area that doesnt want to stay down, use clear nailpolish.

thats what i had to do to get my rounded fwd corners to stay down.

good luck!
i love mine and get compliments on it every time i go anywhere. =D

 

Good, I didnt want to make fun of you.

 

cool bro..and no im paying a shop to do it. did you have to take ur decklid off to wrap or did it with it on the car?

 

I would take it off.

 

i did it before i installed it so yea.. it was off.

i bought a cheap-o ebay decklid for like $30 bucks i think so its just primed underneath with a few sprays of adhesion promoter.

i almost went hydro-dip after my first attempt failed miserably but they wanted like $250 bucks to dip it.
may as well get real carbon on it then. lol

im sure theyll take it off to do it.
it would be a pain in the ass to do it on there and imo would risk scratching the car.

how much are they charging you to do it if you dont mind me asking?

kinda curious to what a shop would charge for something like that.

 

ill see how i feel in a few days.

 

without taking it off, you wont be able to manipulate the vinyl around those curves and bends like BobbyC was talking about

 

only 60 bucks...i know the guy...

 

^it still needs to come off.
even if you know the guy

=D
I just want to see your car modded properly.
your car is hawt as it stands!

 

yea.. thats not bad at all.
i would have gladly paid $60 bucks to get mine done.
i prob spent that in vinyl alone from 3 tries.

put a coat of some sealant on it when you get it. i used blackfire. spray sealant.
made it shiny and beads water pretty good.

tape it up completely when you polish or carnuba wax though.
that shit doesnt come out for some reason.

had to wrap it a 3rd time bc i got compound on it.

 

all finished...here arw some quick pics...my carnis screammmming for a wash..but cant apparently for a few days..came out great...smooth..tucked...no wrinkles etc...also mesed around with foglight tint film...can peel off ..just testin waters n b'sing a bit.

 

BoobyC- you need to wrap your whole trunk already! Don't u remember how cool it looks on those Russian cars!

 

Cool, he did it without taking it off!?

he got skills

 

hahaha i want to..

maybe a project for next summer.
ive spent entirely too much money recently (not car related).
cant justify spending a few hundred on "stickers" as my wife calls them.


they did a amazing job!

holy crap.

mine looks like crap compared to that and i think its pretty good!
lol

 

yea they did it without taking it off came out pretty good..neat and you cant notice it untill u go near the cR. here are a few more pics cleaned up..got a hand wash..lol...taped around the decklid with plastic bag and tape...good to go..lol..took off the fog tint..didnt like it..but other than that pretty satisfied with outcome. sorry for crappy pics..just from my phone..
