FS: VVIVID8 Gloss Carbon Wrap

[DR-JEKL]

Hey guys

I'm going to order a 50ft roll of this amazing stuff and will have quite a bit left over.

That's a pretty damn convincing CF wrap isn't it!

It's manufactured in Germany, and its not like the typical avery, 3M products which are a printed wrap (where the print is in the formation of a cf weave) the vvivid product actually has 3 individual layers hence why it looks like the real deal with a 3d type effect and a high gloss whereas the 3m cf weave has a matte finish:

.

Price is $90 per metre length (width of roll is 5ft) so to do an interior trim you would need 1metre, to do a roof you would need 2 metres.

If you require a pro to install it please let me know, typical rate for a pro is $300 for the labour FYI to do a roof.

Cheers

Where are u based man?

Apologies I should have stated, the wrap will be getting done in Sydney by carbon demon (the go to guy for top quality work)

He is going to do 5 cars for us at $300 for each roof, or $270 if we help him out and remove the shark fin and prep the roof for vinyl wrap by clay barring the paint.

The date we have is the saturday 11th July (providing the wrap arrives in time, and we have 1 spot left)

If you cant do this date I'm sure we can book in another date for you with carbon demon.

I'm based in Newcastle NSW, so if there are interstate guys keen I can cut the sheet to length and send some to you.

This DIY is for a E92, I imagine you 1 series guys would be much the same!

I'm really keen to see a VO or a AW 1M with this CF roof wrap!

Just to clarify as I've had a few PM's regarding what the price is fitted etc

I have 5 metres left and 1 spot left for a carbon demon wrap day.

Carbon demon are offering a wrap day on the Sunday the 19th July.

He's the go to go in Sydney for high quality top work and has offered a great price of $300 for labour, or if you're reasonably handy claybar the roof yourself to prep the paint for vinyl wrapping and remove the sharkfin prior (to save him time) for $270.

So in addition to the cost of the CF wrap, for a roof wrap you will need 2 metres.

Option 1 turn up and let carbon demon do all the work. subtotal = $476 (labour and wrap)

Option 2 prep the roof prior by claying and removing shark fin antenna and glue residue subtotal = $446

This is a great price as the going rate for a conventional roof wrap is $500 using the much cheaper 3M avery wraps.

1st in best dressed, there is only 2 spots left

Bump guys!

The wrap has finally arrived, it looks pretty good for a wrap





We have 1 spot left for the carbon demon wrapping service next sunday 19th July!

Please let me know if you would like this spot ASAP please

hey mate I'm keen - just to clarify, how much are you charging for the vinyl?
what happens to the wrap if the car is let to stay outside in direct sunlight on a hot summer day?

[DR-JEKL]

OK cool, how much would you like?

The wrap is $90 per metre (roll is 5ft wide) and most cars require ~ 2 metres for the roof and 1 metre for an interior trim.

Would you be wanting the install done by carbon demon?

As for the wrap handling a hot summers day in the Australian sun, it's like a conventional wrap that will handle the sun albeit harsh conditions do shorten the lifespan of the wrap.

They rate durability of the carbon for 6 years in a vertical application:

Like anything if you attempt to minimise exposure and keep it maintained it shall last longer

[dr.bmw]

yeah I was thinking about doing the roof on Sunday if you still have the spot
will it bubble and peel off if left exposed to the sun?

OK cool, yes we have one spot left, your car would be sometime after midday I would imagine (we have 3 cars booked at 9am and they take ~ 2 hrs per car apparently)

Would you be paying $300 for him to prep the paint, remove the shark fin antenna and glue residue from the paint or DIY and pay $270?

No I dont believe it will bubble and peel off being left exposed to the sun. From my research if a wrap bubbles or peels this is generally due to a lack of correct preperation and or operator error when applying the wrap (excessive heat) also the cheap non name wraps have poor adhesives and can bubble and peel the vvivid product is rated as a premium product like avery 3M etc and that's exactly why I'm getting a pro to install it

FYI the roof rails and shark fin antenna will be wrapped gloss black (when you look at the m3's this is how the roof is done) and the price includes carbon demon to supply this gloss black wrap or if you want you can have them in carbon also.

Approx 6 metres (I've kept a few metres up my sleeve in case a mistake is made when 1st wrapping, wasteage etc)

If dr.bmw pays for his roof wrap I may only have 4 metres left.
