I like IT!!

I'm more conservative when it comes to my Personal car.... but i love it when people express theirs!!

I plan to wrap my PB Evo X too maybe pearl white or white (-__-) I know..

But still love the color combo..

The only thing I would say about the whites - if you're going to do it, get a gloss finish. The white or off-white matte finishes have major issues. If you have someone professional do it they will probably tell you the same thing.

Thanks for the compliments everyone.

I too agree with some of the earlier comments, color looks great, bit something you see often.
I do think you did loose some of the color contrast though and maybe the reason why I'm not feeling the roof that much either. For some reason a CF roof on the Evo doesn't look as good as the one on the M3s. Maybe it has to do with the lines of the car.

Totally agree with you. I'm getting ready to redo the roof in a glossy CF which should make it pop a little more and I think it will change the look of the car completely. You may be right about the lines though. Not sure the SS "humps" along the roof line help the cause of trying to do a CF wrap. Would probably look more normal without the humps.

Incorrect.
A decent paint job will run you $2500-$3k.
This wrap even with the CF "upgrade" was just over $1200.

Not incorrect. In my town vinyl wraps are $2,000+
I never understood why so much $$$
