How much for vinyl wrapping?
adrianreeve - 11/6/10 at 06:56 PM

Does anyone know how much roughly it would cost me to have the rear panel and side panels wrapped in either black or carbon fibre effect vinyl, or whether it's a realistic DIY proposition?

I live in Kent / London border if that makes a difference to price?

Cheers

Adrian

I was talking to friend with a car dealership yesterday. It cost him 700 to wrap a 3 series BMW.

Err No! I would charge a minimum of £3400+vat to refinish a new 3 series, £700 would barely cover the cost of the liquid paint.

give my mate 'J' a call at http://www.stickimedia.co.uk/ down in whitstable, kent, he can do a very nice carbon effect or wrap, tell him Big John sent you and he should do you a good price, he can wrap a train so it little 7 replica should be easy, i'm going to get him to do mine when its finnished save painting it.

A fellow SWTOC member is presently having his Tiger Cat wrapped by a firm in Truro. I believe they're charging £300 for the whole car in a single block colour.

Does anyone know what happens if the wrap gets scratched? ie is it glued on or held on by vacuum or what? Would it peel?
Excuse my iggerance.

if it gets scratched or damaged, u can just peeled it off, and get the section reprinted and stick it on, all the sky tv vans are wrapped, ove a long time it may start to peel but its good stuff, as i say, i will be having my car done
