E90 320D - Carbon White

[husain333]

Hi guys

I'm looking for opinion and view on what you guys think of this idea.
My everyday car is a E90 320D. I was thinking of wrapping the entire vehicle in white carbon wrap,

Opinions?

 

[UpNcOmiNg!]

May I ask why?

 

[PhoenixGG]

Have you ever seen it done? Pics?

1. The bumpers need a bit of attention. Wife introduced the car to the pavement a few times.
2. The rear bumper is now missing a tow hook cover as I was parked at. Mall and when I came out found it gone.

So I figured if I'm going to redo it maybe I cam look at this. Also I'm sitting with a 30m roll of carbon white

I have not seen it done in carbon white.
Seen Matt white.

 

[UpNcOmiNg!]

Ahhh yes.
That could be enough reason.
I would check up on pics and such.
I really dont know much about wrapping, other then the owner of a certain company is a tosser! :bangdesk:

:roflol: ok wonder who.
I tried checking but most cars that do appear only have like bonnet or roof. No one with full white carbon. See I have a few colours but was thinking white would be different

I really wouldnt want to mention that its Jason from Second Skynz, that just wouldnt be right of me you know!:blab:

Anyway, what colour is your car currently, show us what the carbon white looks like.

Where abouts are you buddy?

Why don't you mix matte with carbon white. I somehow see the carbon to look over done for the entire car

If you around the Alberton area, come see me, give you a tow hook cover.

well doing the vinyl isnt an issue, i can do that also from my experience but the thing is all the scratches and stuff must be sorted beforehand cause if it peels or something, it will take the paint with it if it put over a scratch perhaps (as an example)

I was thinking of that. Mixing Matt white and carbon white. Or Carbon white and something else

You know a proper wrap should be around R18k...

I know that's retail price. I wholesale vinyl and same quality as 3m. Just our current market everyone is being ripped of on everything. When I look at prices that people sell things for an I know the costing It shocked me.

I rather push the volumes and have people come back than charge hectic prices and limited customers

Me and herr BMW saw a BMW M6 wrapped in white at east rand mall.

Looked really nice from far, but the closer we got the worse it started looking.

Biggest problem was that the wrapping wasn't done very well.

But can't you fix what's wrong for the price of wrapping the car?? :idea:

I agree with this statement, rather get the car repaired properly, the money will be better spent.

I was on
Y looking for opinions. Think that's what I will do, I'll have it repaired. It's basically front and rear bumper slight scratch on the drivers side skirt.

Any recommendation on panel shop? If I ever needed I sent the car to alberante BMW.
