Thinking about wrapping the R what’s your opinion???

[TheBigG]

I asked the wrap guy your question and he said PlastiDip is oil base, which isn't good for the paint. Plus, PlastiDip comes out "rough" compared to a wrap. Whether you agree with this statement or not, I'm just the messenger. Don't shoot me.

Ok! I promisse I won't shoot you!
Just for general information:
I had plastidip on my car for four years and everything was ok. With Plasti dip Pro line it should be as fine as a wrap.

I wish I could do it myself would have saved me a ton but I actually got it done at http://phenomenalvinyl.com/

How much are shops charging you guys? A local one near me that is quite good quoted $3,750 using 3m and a 3 year warranty.

I was looking at this ebay listing and It looks like the 4D variation looks closest is what I meant

How much hate would we get if the hood was wrapped with 4D? Considering the hood is already light weight already. Has anyone done this yet? Maybe I will be the first...

Saw youtube video how they care of cars when they wrap. How come we don't have those reliable professional wrappers in IL? so sad... for me I have no choice just do clear bra for whole half front including windshield and just do glossy black wrap for roof.

Looks great! this was my choice of color when I was going to wrap mine. There's just not that many good wrap shops here in Nashville so I had to back out and they were charging almost $4K for a wrap without taking any parts off the car before wrapping. I kinda wish Premium Auto Styling had a shop here since I follow their YouTube channel and they do one hell of an amazing job with their wraps.

I follow their channel too, awesome guys.

Zipsta, Saw your Type R in the background in their latest vids! Will they be releasing a video of them working on it?

Oh, you saw it?!? Haha! I follow them as well and saw my car too! I don't think they got much footage of working on the car since they were at SEMA and Utah for the wrap give-a-way. But, I think they're going to release a simple video. They were filming when I first got there to meet Daniel and when I picked up the car.

I thought about wrapping the hood scoop in black. Satin is totally the way to go The next hard part is to see how badly he gets dirty. Make sure you get your products to clean the satin

I wrapped mines 2 weeks ago from blue to satin white pearl

Looks great! Grew up in Queens myself.

Is everyone getting the section with all the little vortex generators on the back wrapped?

Wondering if it’s wise to remove those to wrap, or just leave that little section alone?

I’m wrapping mine in less than 2 weeks. So excited!
