It's kinda hard to judge from the pics but I must say this looks like the best wrap I've seen. Glossy wraps usually look like crap with no real gloss and orange peel all over.

Very nice color. Makes it unique. :-)

The grey you have chosen looks a little too olive/brown for my tastes, but it looks to be a top notch job. Glad you like it!
thanks. I agree they should've seriously considered more colors.

Thanks! hmm it was offered to me during the foiling process since they can do it too, but believe me it looks nicer this way with the tail lights more colorful to blend with the grey tone of the car.

Thanks Metak! yeah the hood does show more now, very happy with it!

What front splitter is that?
Thanks! I agree with Metak, but might get satin black replica wheels for drifting sessions and see how they turn out

That's the CRT lip. it was wrapped to match the rear diffuser, but it was not fixed correctly, it was inclined from the front. so i removed it but might fix it properly without the wrap later.

Thanks! yeah they use high quality German wrap by a company called Orafol. They even have a glossy black wrap, which you can imagine how hard it can be to apply without orange peel effect, but they can do it!

Thanks! yeah first two are correct, but the third is an orange Challenger SRT i think.

--------------------------------------------------------

So i guess I wont be updating this thread with pix for a while...


I always wanted to do an ED when getting such a unique car, but my dealer couldn't do it coz he got the 1M very late (Nov) so it was useless to do an ED, so i was determined to do it myself, now

The car is being shipped to Germany for a 3 weeks Euro trip, including a drive in Switzerland and France! I hope i have a chance to meet most of the 1M members in these countries

Temperatures in Dubai are currently around 90-110 F so im not missing the car at all till the end of October when the weather starts to cool down and freshens up !

All I can say is WOW. it's unbelievable what a color can do to a car. But most of all just by simply wrapping it. I guess, say bye bye to paint because the new and more cleaner way is warping.

I feel lost amongst the sea of white, that looks spectacular. Did they also wrap the door jambs? How aggressive can one be polishing the car when swirl marks appear?

I like it, it looks great!!!

as far as the spoiler goes try to push it back as far as possible during install and you shouldnt have the issue with the incline. If we are referring to the same thing... I have noticed another car with it inclined, mine sits properly and I pushed it as far back as possible during install.

Thanks ! good point, yeah the inner parts of the doors are also wrapped, as well as the inner parts on the panel, but not the door holders and jambs.

Thanks Allen! yeah regarding the lip, when they removed it i realized they used silicon for additional support instead of double sided tape, which made it lower at the back. I didn't want to ship the car like that so thought i'll fix it back once the car is back!
