Car wrapping..... whats the deal
A mate of mine has just bought a VERY nice BMW that has been fully wrapped and looks the nuts....
Whats the deal with it, what are the costs of wrapping a car and do you need to tell the DVLA about a color change as his is Silver but wrapped up white......

Your looking at anything from a £1000 - £2000 for a good quality vyinal and wrap!!!
Got a place local to me in Nottingham that does this and its amaziing to watch!! the main guy that does it has 22 years experiance in wrapping and it shows, lovely work being sent out his workshop!!
I work for a company in the printing industry and we had a sister company that supplies vyinal Etc, had a go at it a couple of times and its not easy trust me!!!!

PassionFord Post Whore!!
How hard wearing is the wrap? Does it start to peel up at the edges after a while? Didn't they do a VW Transporter with a blue bubble patterned film?

that ferrari was £1400, its got carbon fibre wrapped wing mirrors and stripes, plus detailing parts.
its just a big sticker at the end of the day, but aslong as your careful washing it, then will be fine,
you can polish it, etc, and nowadays the vinyls closer to paint finish.
a mini i did a few weeks ago

never cut on the car if you can help it,
but if you have to, theres a special tape that you use, that you put down first to cut the vinyl on, then peel it off.
cut vinyl, but not the paint.
strip car back as much as possible
