Matte Black Vinyl Wrapping

Nacho · May 2, 2011

Thinking of doing it. (Found some inexpensive rolls on EBAY)I love the white look of mine, but I really want a Matte Black look to it. Also going to Herculine the Fender Flares and bumpers (Being replaced soon due to damage anyways).

I've been doing alot of research on this, what experience do you guys have with vinyl wrapping (Pros/Cons)

Thanks.

Connor's Outlaw Raptor truck is wrapped and it looks great. You could talk to him since I understand he and his guys did it.

Caution: Once you go black you'll never go back :mrgreen:

im taking my tuxedo black raptor in this morning to have the flars painted to match. im thinking about having the hood wrapped later in the month with matte black. should i leave the grill alone, or paint it tuxedo black or matte black. i have matte black wheels and a black ADD bumper coming in this week?

Ken Block's Raptor is flat black some I don't want to do it.

Decided on matte black, It will be easier for me to spray paint over any chips as compared to if it was ptm

Alot of the ones i've seen (ie 3M and Avery) are removable and they say they wont damage the paint.

I did some price checking with local shops here in Stuttgart Germany...those fools want 2000 EURO for the job.

Going to do a DIY install. I'm pricing it total for materials around 300 bucks and maybe borrow a heat gun....taking my time it should be around 3-4 days to do it with my busy schedule.
