i traded the csl's straight up for style fives, so i was running on ds2's for alittle


got the car in the shop,






finished the car, with the roof now painted black instead of vinyl.



now for the hard part, finishing the car completely in 3 days, starting around 9pm everynight. did the hood first, was the first time doing any vinyl wrapping at all. (sorry for the boo boo pictures)






got one side sorta done, and also fitted the wheels, playing with the rear camber, spacers ect.

next morning playing with it


stupid bumpers screwed me over on this. it wasnt sticking around the curves on the bumper so we went to reclean the bumper and rewrap it, but when we pulled the vinyl off, the paint came with it since the vinyl is sorta see through i couldnt just reapply it, so what we did was just re sand the bumper, and rattle canned it, and re wrapped it.. still, vinyl no stick :[ eh whatever youll see it in the pictures.



FINISHED PRODUCT, pictures are from ones i found on teh interwebs plus a few from that my friends took.

looks pretty sick, thinking about doing a vinyl wrap on my e46 instead of a paint job. was it super difficult?

[Ollie]

It looks awesome dude

[Capt. Obvious]

Looks great. I'd never have guessed your car was wrapped by looking at the pics.

[DCJodon]

Looking freaking awesome.

[Kielan]

Looks good man.

I would love to see a LTW High rise on your car, I really think it would complete the look.

[Dudermagee]

love the wheels, vinyl came out good, I would have sprayed the bumper a semigloss red then put on the wrap since the paint was ruined anyways

[Uberwagen]

Looks good!

What vinyl did you use to do the wrap? Been thinking of doing this myself.

[Eric M]

Looks awesome man! My e36 is parked next to yours on that picture from FCF, guess they made friends When I first saw your car at h2o rolling on the strip I was so stoked.

[Big Ben]

...wow, so awesome. Love your car.....

[Laserlite]

[MadMax]

Looks awesome in Red

Bout time you found your way over here from bf.c! Car looks sick man, I too would like to see it with the high rise back on, how long you gonna run with the vinyl? Cheers!

[Zack01GC]

How hard was it and how long did it take to do the wrap? Looks complicated (getting around the kidneys, etc).

Looks good, though.
