A local wrap guy is going to be giving me an estimate today for a wrap. I'm thinking a matte gray. Kind of like this:


Or a matte Red so the door jams and such aren't so glaringly obvious.

Matte doesn't look terrible on our cars:

Have you done any research into professionally applied removable coatings (e.g. Autoflex)?

It's new, but the preliminary stuff I've seen looks great and it seems like it's both cheaper and has better results than vinyl, especially if you want to do a gloss finish.

I'm considering using it to protect my paint and go mexico blue for this winter.
