oh ah ooha ah... Brushed titanium :eek:

Not sure if you're being sarcastic with the green font. You put it in a spray gun.

I haven't done it myself, but I'm considering matte black for one of my projects.

^^^I was being sarcastic....but wth, I didn't know that you could do this....interesting!

Spraying with plasti-dip is an option. Easier to clean and reshoot if it gets peeled up. But... Can't was it with any abrasives.

But way cheaper as in you could change colors every month for a year and it's still less than a wrap.

For Alex:

Unfortunately, I don't have any pics of the wrap in-process. I think it took me ~40 hrs of actual wrapping (with probably 2x that in prep) and there were a couple of "re-do's" because I made a few mistakes. I was into this for ~$375 in wrap materials (not counting prep materials). Here's one pic of the car entering our local Cars and Coffee event.

The silver is wrapped. The black lower rockers/front/rear valence is paint (Rustoleum satin black over textured truck bed liner) to make rock chip repair relatively easy. Front valence has cut-outs in place of the fog lights for ducting air to the oil cooler.

One thing I like about the wrap is that I don't worry about messing up an expensive paint job. I figure if somebody scratches a door or fender that I'll just redo that section.

I'd consider a wrap but the rain gutters on a coupe just seem to scream major pain in the ass.

Do it! I used to not be a fan, but the vinyl has gotten really good in recent years! And on a car that nice, please pay someone. I have years of experience applying vinyl, and I thought wrapping a 930 was a major pain in the ass and I wasn't happy with how it turned out.


And Craig, do it!

We've had some pretty cool wraps done on customer cars. I'll see if I can find the photo of the 991 we had done recently.

Satin White wrapped 991 Turbo S cab. Looks killer in person, and you really can't tell it's not paint!http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1458196738.jpg

Sweet! What color was it originally?

It was originally silver, and then had a bad silver re-spray on top. (It's a '75 Targa 911S but not one of the silver anniversary models. I does have the factory hard-top!)

Thanks Peter.....a whole bunch of links to other videos!

I'm now tending more towards a Red Chrome wrap, as in this 911 Carrera:

I've seen the red chrome on an MB, looks killer, but it shows scratches like a mofo. Have to be careful about how you wash and dry the car. Like not with a towel of any kind.

^^^Ah, shyte!...thanks for the heads up!

Well, she's going in tomorrow! I'm going ahead with the red metallic G203, like the wrap on this Bim:

I'll get her back in about a week and hopefully no issues!:p

I was going to sand her down and repaint her but I didn't have the $8K-10K. Had it done for under $2K and when I take it to cars and coffee folks can't believe it. I kept it Grand Prix White. I think it looks good. Scott has seen it and drove it - he's an honest guy. Scott? what do you think? Its not Mint, or Concurs but she's a nice 3 footer!

Lubey... After the wrap, how does it fare with sun exposure? Any curling or stretching m/peeling at the edges? Did you pull the seals and wrap under them?

My 930 has fiberglass fenders, bumpers, and hood. Any concerns with wrapping fiberglass?

I like the wrap on your ride.

And she sure does drive nice.
