Who's had their car wrapped?

I'm planning on getting my RRS wrapped next year, I have looked through the previous post and noticed a lot of people saying they would never have it done again, but there are bound to be happy endings too. Anybody that has had it done who would you recommend or avoid and any pictures?

Thanks

Everytime his car got bumped it tore so they had to take car back and put a whole new piece on
Major hassle 2006 RRS Supercharged 4.2 HST muthuaflecka!

Probably cheaper and quicker than a paint job no? Would have thought it would be cheaper replacing a section of wrap than respraying paint work. 2010 RRS TDV6 3.0 Autobiography - Stornoway Grey

I have also been thinking about this as I would really like a Nara bronze Rrs but don't have a spare 15k on top of mine to get one. Does anybody know how much it costs? Is it cheaper than paint?
You could get on outside respray for 1k.... Hmmmmm

My mate does them here in Belfast, he is doing my roof and sides of the roof to make it more new looking... I'd not hesitate to do the lot, the materials are amazing and look great even years into them on. I really must drag him out of the studio and onto my roof before christmas, its ridiculous! I've had the wrap in the office the past 3 months!

Wrapping is a great way to colour change a car, with the right materials & the right fitters it can last years. If you go for it, make sure they use a cast vinyl or you will more than likely get problems. 3M, Arlon, Avery, APA, Hexis are some of the good vinyls Thumbs Up

I have found a place that uses the best stuff, and takes the panels off to wrap them properly. The car gets a full detail first to make sure there are no imperfections under neither. I think these horror stories might be people that has rubbish vinyl.

Well he did tell me that they are twice as expensive than most but it's because they do the job properly. He said between £2500 to £3000 for a full colour change.

He said not to go to people in Glasgow as they get a lot of cars coming to them after a bad job to be sorted

Cheers W33 RRS........Glasgow prices are around the £1600 mark. Three grand seems pretty steep for a wrap, but you get what you pay for I guess. Thumbs Up 2010 RRS TDV6 3.0 Autobiography - Stornoway Grey

Having for years ordered our lorries in company colours then getting hammered at trade in, this time, I odered a white unit and had it wrapped by local guy. Have to say it looks good although it's still fresh, what it will look like after 000's miles in dirt and grime of winter remains unanswered. 2x TDV6. SE and HSE. Both returned to sender with issues👀
TDV8 Sport HSE...... Gone. Loved it but it didn't love me!!
