Having the 172 wrapped

[Diagro]

Hey

so dropped my car off on Saturday.

It's currently being wrapped in matt anthracite.
Along with ear window tinting.

here are some pics of the progress!

will update when I get more updates!

 

[Greeny.]

Nice How much does this sort thing cost out of interest if you don't mind sharing? Pm me if you don't want it public knowledge!

 

[Aaronexx]

That looks good mate, can't wait to see it finished, and also how it holds out in the long term!

 

[Mr Plums]

That looks a lovely colour mate keep us updated.

 

[smac4494]

That's beautiful. I always thought matte anthracite would look crappy. I stand corrected

 

[Diagro]

I do like the colour. Can't wait to collect it on Tuesday!

 

[Mr Plums]

Are they doing inside the doors etc?

How much if you dont mind me asking?

 

[Diagro]

No idea if they doing door shuts. I wouldn't have expected so.
The wrap is free as I won a competition.
The tinting is £80 for 3 windows.
Then I'm paying some extra as they had to remove some plastidip and oil from the edges.

I will grab a price for who ever is interested when I pick it up.

These chaps are located in Huntingdon near Cambridge.

I am leaving for the train @ 10:30 and will have the car by 1PM tomorrow!

WIll update this thread with pics as soon as i get the car back!

That looks fantastic so far mate!

 

[Diagro]

Sorry for the delay in adding Pics.
Was a long trip back and then had wheels rebalanced and Geo sorted.

They Plastidipped the Strips and Spoiler, The Wrap would not form to the shape they said.

I Hope you like it as much as I do.

 

[Ol’ Tarby]

Yeah, I'm liking that!

 

[Aaronexx]

Thats looks sick! Lets hope it lasts as long as you hope!

 

[-Dan]

That is really nice. It's a shame that the price of a decent wrap is half the price of the cars these days.

 

[Mr Plums]

Looks superb that, doorshuts?

 

[Diagro]

Door shuts are still black.

 

[Stefan.]

Looks ok

Shame couldnt do the spoiler

 

[Addicted]

Really like the colour and agreed re spoiler, let's it down!

 

[Diagro]

I know where to buy the wrap, I might buy myself a couple of meters and have a play myself over the next holiday I get.
I'm sure I can figure out how to make a join.

 

[Addicted]

How come you need to make a join, the spoiler is one piece?

 

[v15ben]

Very different, I like it and bet it looks even better in the metal.

 

[Diagro]

How come you need to make a join, the spoiler is one piece?

From what i understand.. The spoiler is curved in such a way this wrap didn't like it.

 

[Darren61]

I like it, and don't like it. Totally mixed feelings

 

[smac4494]

The spoiler can be wrapped in one piece but it truly is a b**ch to get it to a show standard quality. The spoilers washer is your main obstacle(if you choose to keep it). I decided to get rid after my second

 

[Diagro]

Its easy to just remove the washer and wrap over it then just poke a hole and put it back no?

I have 2M of the wrap on its way to me and i will attempt to wrap it myself.
