Ferrari F40 wrapped

Can't say I would have wrapped my F40 but it does look good.

Why not? Wrap is easily reversible but I think the owner is a Tool for even thinking about repainting that car.

Replacing the original thin paint will be difficult to say the least.

Yianni does tons of videos with Matt Watson from Car Wow and constantly wraps many exotics in weird colors. He caters to the "hey look at me" crowd.... This is more of a publicity stunt than anything else if you were to ask me.

Though a wrap is easily reversible, I would not mess with that car and its infamous paint (so thin yu can see the carbon weave). To each their own.

I admire what can be done in terms of wrapping a car. Does the paint suffer a bunch of razor blade cuts? I would think so.

The original red paint looked really good from what I could see in the video- seems a shame to respray it. The owner seems like a total douche.

Not why not but why? That car looks great in it's original form. The wrap looks great but doesn't improve the vehicle look. But as Gus Berges stated this is a publicity stunt. The owner says as much.
