what you kidding right first of all maaco paints for $300 bucks not $3000. i have painted two cars previously (at my buddys shop) top of the line paint job, sanding the car, sand blasted, primed it twice, paint and three clear coats for $2800...yes it was on my dsm's with a little bit smaller surface area but still for $3k you can get a nice paint job (dont get me wrong there is paint jobs up to $10k)

I was probably exaggerating a little but, I have a feeling your version of top of the line is probably different than mine.

 

For sure I can get a real decent paint job for 3k or under. This assumes me helping for most of the prep (Sanding, taping, and such) but still for 3k I can get something far superior to the OEM paint on these things.

Good to know people in the game.

Heck for 1000 I think you can paint this car better than factory

But yea man custom paint jobs can get pricey quick and then your scared to even drive the car anymore (Screw That)

 

The first vinyl wrapped car I saw was a new GTR in a magazine. Heres a link to a GTR that was wrapped and they somewhat show the process of doing it also.

That sh*t is kewl!!!

 

Too bad they ruined it

 

Not really feeling the vinyl over the whole car, but damn! I give props to the guys wrapping entire cars, they are doing a nice job at it.

 

alot of high end cars are being vynil wrapped. Ive seen a black series e63 benz... brand new m3.. IT takes someone skilled to actually do it correctly and be perfect.

 

 

I freaking love it!!!! DO it. That is such a great idea for race cars. all you need is primer the new part and aply this stuff. Where can I get some of the suplies to do it? Im reading this now:

nice you can look like every other honda now.. please go the extra mile and get some steel wheels (only 2)

 

Here was one of the first cars I saw wrapped. 335i. Looks great IMO

 

post up pics when you are done!

 

Its def worth it for the people who change cars constantly. I've seen higher end full wraps at around 2k, and just removed when the car was for sale, with perfect paint .
