In most cases with vinyl wraps you are going to get what you pay for. Be sure to look at the media they are going to use. Some of them have a nasty cross hatch effect on the surface of the vinyl. The higher end wraps will look almost like paint but, it's expensive.

Probably the best advice in this thread and you just shrugged it off . The color is obviously your preference. If you want it to stand out than make the car yellow or pink, kind of a no brainer.

Oh, I'm sorry. I don't know what I was thinking with that advice.

Here let me be helpful...Pink or possibly Burberry house check.

For what you'd spend on a good quality wrap, you could buy alot of nice go fast parts................
