Thinking about wrapping my raptor. Any obvious pros and cons about doing it that you all have figured out? I know I'll have to remove my graphics. Any other cons to think about? Thanks a lot.

Not to many cons. You may have some areas bubble up, but most of these places that wrap will fix it for free. A huge pro is that it will protect your paint. The 3M wrap that I have is extremely durable and holds up well. If you scratch it or what not you just bring it back have them put a new section on and your done. So much better than having to get things repainted.

Didn't think about just having to do a panel. That' great. Thanks for the response.

If anyone has any recommendations in LA, please let me know.

Bar just a thought...

Why not wrap over the graphics?! There was a night raptor build a while ago, I apologize I can't remember who it was and they did something similar. It looked awesome! Considering doing this myself for a hood wrap.

It gives a subtle look but looks great if the sun or light hits it on an angle and dust will stick in the edges giving it a 3d look. You get to keep your graphics even if you wanted to remove the wrap one day.

We are in AZ not to far from Cali,

We make forum member deals on WRAPS, Generally a wrap is about 1/2 the cost of a custom paint job, and basically full vehicle protection.

please check out our gallery, even if you don't use us please don't hesitate to pick up the phone, I will answer any questions you might have.
