that looks poor tbh not a fan looks ruined
if its going to be carbon fibre wrapped its need to be done using shiny carbon fibre film not matt looks very bland for an RS4
this is the sort of thing, i know this is real carbon fibre but you can get shiny carbon fibre film for a wrap think how good that RS4 could have looked

Possibly because white m3's are like hens teeth & a respray would be a couple grand where as this costs 500 quid or so.
Wouldnt do it myself but it can look ok...............better than a poke in the eye anyway

I was sure I saw a thread that said it costs quite a bit more for a full wrap.
Not denying they look sexy in white, just wondered if the fact it was wrapped meant anything apart from the owner is a cheap ass.
I reckon that RS4 looks x10 better in the flesh.

The guy who owns the rs4 actually owns a vinyl and graphic application company theink he went for that style of carbon vinylwrap because its actually textured there is nearly 1ks worth of vinyl in that wrap and took 2 days to do i have all the pics of my mate doing it very clever but it does look better in the flesh plus them pics were taken with a camera phone so not the best quality they are doing a merc sl63 next week so hopefully will get some pics of that up

Supposed to be very durable, most come with a 5yr guarantee.
You thinking of having a colour change?

no just wondered really. 5 year gurantee is more than you'd get with most bodyshops for a respray.

There was a matt blak 350Z on a stand at Trax, possibly Fast Cars stand, up close it looked shocking, bubbles, flaking, chipping, wouldnt bother tbh.
