thats just it.... Im sure if I saw it in person, would almost be impossible to tell its a wrap...
Plus, TONS of cars are going to wrap these days. For the price of a wrap vs whole paint job you are stuck with.... especially on an expensive car... Wrap is the easy way to go for a complete color change... HOWEVER, id like to see the jams and under hood. thats one downfall I see. But that exterior looks as mint as it gets. I watched it about ten times to look for a single blemish in it.

ive yet to see any wrap look good in person. in reality they dont' they just look bad. ive seen 80k bimers that just look like poo because of wraps. if you can afford an 80k car you can afford a paint job. heck i can take a spray can and paint my car a new color every week and its very cheap, but it will still look bad.
the chrome i think looks good for a show and advertising deal. but wouldnt want it on a car. i agree i'd hate to be anywhere near that thing on the road on a sunny day.
That looks well done. Pretty sick actually. I always worry if you get bored with it, and want to rip it off... the paint comes of with it. I tell you this, as I used to see it when I worked at Mercedes, and these folks with $100K + cars got tired or had so many stone chips that the vinyl needed to be changed. Need less to say, the clear coat would get ripped out or the paint to would peel out exposing the bare metal. It was like Brazilian wax being done to a car.

i have had to remove some wraps from cars before and it hasn't causes any damage. usually we throw the car in the paint booth for 10-15 on bake cycle and it comes off fairly clean. there maybe a bit of adhesive residue which is easily taken care of with allsol
the vinyl is like anything else. diffrent companies, diffrent glue process blah blah blah. im sure if you had some weak clear and a heave glue on some vynal and it got baked on there enough you could have issues like that. regardless it looks like crap either way lol.
Looks nice, till you drive it on the street and get smashed up because people can't see you. If the glare isn't blinding enough the car would practically look invisible at a glance.
