Wanna wrap my car in vinyl

[Predrag]

How much does this cost? I wanna wrap my whole car in vinyl. Im thinking flat black. How hard is this?


Would you recommend I do it myself if I get the material? Where can I get the material anyways?

[SeanDub]

expect to pay $3-5k.

You can do it yourself, but its a bitch.

[hotdoghogie]

wtf 3-5k!?

good material is about 300-400$ total cost for wrap and adhesive and im sure they wouldnt charge you 4g's to put it on

^ It's not cheap to have done right.

[wheelfetish]

I would get it done by a professional. Ever put that cheap window tint on from walmart? Its a bitch. Now imagine doing that to a whole car. Wrinkles, bubbles, tears. Fuck all that.

So you've clearly never looked into this.

[BreakMyWallet]

yeah its a bitch to do. i started to do mine then sacked up and having my shop paint it now.

If youre just going to do a single color, there is no reason to do vinyl really. Just paint the fucker

[BreakMyWallet]

in any case. if you need vinyl i can get you a 60"x50 yard roll for under 300.

Cheaper
Reversible
Protects your paint

That being said, you've got to be a glutton for punishment to attempt it yourself. $3-$5k is average for a professional to do it (but at that range paint is a viable alternative).

Its not cheaper, you just said so yourself. If hes going for flat black, and the point is budget, just do some practice painting on scrap metal then paint your car.

I guess it all depends on the variables :P When I wrapped my MINI I figured $400 was going to be way cheaper than paying someone to paint it for me. But DIY vs. DIY it's probably about the same price, or paying someone to do either could come out the same.

I was quoted $500 to do my roof with a houndstooth print, and that was mates rates...
