Any more pictures of the car? This was a route I was seriously considering in December but funds weren't there at the time. Now things are much better so its something I'm reconsidering but would like to see more pictures before I make a final decision!

I think the air intake sections all round the kit look pretty functional
Looks quite different in some of the pics....

WOW!! I wasn't expecting to see my buddies Ford GT from the Gumball 3000 Rally on here... It looked amazing and took home the best car from the Gumball/HRE.

We just wrapped this little number about 3 weeks ago.
Turned out good.
You can get more or less luster in the material depending on what laminate you use. That's why some may have more of a flat look than others.
I'm a fan of the matte black look, even though some hate it.
Although I must say, it just doesn't look right without black wheels.
A wrap is much better than painting the car for many reasons.
If for some reason your car is pelted by multiple rocks from a truck on the freeway, (or who knows what) the vinyl may chip, although so would your paint.
Its much cheaper to re-wrap that panel than it would be to repaint it flat black.
And when you decide to sell the car, you can peel the wrap off and the paint is preserved from the day you wrapped it.

Heres Mine.. Its PPG black w/ Glasruit matte clear....Took us 3x to get it right. We tried different combinations, I think this worked best for me.. After having it for a while Ill say that its definitely not forgiving. Luckily for me my friend owns the body shop so painting it over n over is nothing....

There is a guy that lives by me and he is doing Flat White on his Silver Z.. He is doing the install by his self so it kinda looks like chit up close since he doesnt really know what he is doing but from a distance that chit is silly
