Wrapped the Evo

Curious what everyone thinks. Want honest opinions!

Color is Lagoon Blue Matte Metallic.
Carbon Fiber on the roof and mirrors.

Before

Now

Edit: Moar pics

Sorry this took so long to get up here. More detailed pics right after a fresh detail. Was cloudy right after washing and then ran some errands and the sun came out so took some more.

Update Nov 2014 Changed up the look a bit over the weekend. This was my first time DIYing vinyl and it came out pretty good.
Took about 16 hours total. Did the hood, trunk and wing in CF and redid the trunk in the blue since it was scratched up by a lady who backed into me in a parking lot.
Thoughts on new combo? I'm in love with it.

Looks a lot more fierce in my opinion.

Love the color.

Did they do the door jams? I'll be curious to see how well it holds up

Good job. I like it better white but at least you did this the correct way.

Yes once I get them from a friend who took a bunch with an SLR camera I'll add them to the first post.

I've been thinking the exact same thing.

They would have, for about 3 times the cost.

So much labor involved that it wasn't worth it. I will get a few sheets and do it myself. Doesn't have to be "perfect" since you almost never see it.

I hear you. I bought the car white because I've been in love with WW Evo X's since the day they were announced. Just knew I wanted to wrap it and wanted something different. Not the standard colors you see everyone wrap their cars. Great part is when I get tired of it, i take it off and BAM, my WW baby is back!
