Re: BMW owner tapes black car to white

I bet from 10 feet away, or even five, you cant tell the difference. My only issue would be trying to wax it or getting a nice shine off of it. I might do this for my next bank job.

I had Vynol on my car for years before I pulled it off and you cant even tell it was ever there. paint looked brand new when we pulled it off.

Re: BMW owner tapes black car to white

i wonder how they did it around the door handles, gas tank, and such cause i bet you can tell up close that its really a sticker. and what do you detail it with, vinyl protectant? lol. i wonder if it would turn yellow after a year under the sun. it just seems like a ton of work for nothing. and hopefully there are no cut marks on the paint from trimming the vinyl to fit.

Re: BMW owner tapes black car to white

My only worry would be if the car got scratched. With a paint job you can just respray the damaged spot, with this would you have to rewrap the whole car?

Re: BMW owner tapes black car to white

Re: BMW owner tapes black car to white

i'm sure the work is warranted for at least a year. Most of the cost is probably in the labor given all the detail that would be needed on the smaller handles and tail light areas.
