Wouldn't the CF wrap make the car weigh less ???

Airrik

how so?

Hapich

LOL! I would get it and tell people that it's an after market carbon fiber body kit. Oh man, I want to get it just for that!!

That's really incredible stuff, very nice... I will consider doing this too. My car has a paint bleshmish or contamination on the hood and Stuart-Body quote me $2 to $2.5K to repaint the front only. Maybe I should change the whole car color instead, cool :-)

Interesting concept... Spend 2k on respraying my hood/fende/bumpers or wrap it in white...

whats the longevity of these wraps? do they wrap the door jams somehow?

Riad

$2500 to repaint just the hood? What are they using baby seal eyes in the pigment?

Wow, that looks really nice. Your car looks sinister now. I do wonder how much weight it added to the car out of curiosity.

Yup. SkinzWraps. Great company to work with!

I haven't put it up on the scales yet, but I'm guessing maybe 10-20 lbs (if that much). So now my car will weigh 3060 with fluids

Airrik, it was a joke.

Riad

OK - I just recieved a quote from the compnay.

$4,500 - sorry guys no way this is worth it in my eyes.

What if they don't get any in your eyes Riad, still feel the same?

Barn996

YES, and much stronger too.

If you are tracking the car and get a wrap to protect the paint and resale, I think it makes sense. Otherwise I just don't get the whole wrap look. I prefer a nice shiny, glossy car, in Black too! Yeah, its a lot more work, but so worth it.
The plain matte black cars look like primer to me. At least the carbon fibre look is better then matte.

However, its a car, not a stealth fighter. And its not carbon fibre either. Sorry to be "keeping it real", but I don't like it, except for the practical aspects of maintenance.

Riad

For $4500 I'd expect a reach around.

I would be interested to see how it looks in the door jams.

...instead of a bend over.
