Anyone ever had a full vehicle wrap? If so where you happy with the results? What did you pay and what car have you got?

Any pics?

Something I learned about a full Matt wrap the other day was, you need to use a special car wash shampoo, not the normal any more.

I cant help with where.

Elite films is the only established on I've heard of around here.

It's not cheap and bodywork needs to be perfect.

Thanks I have emailed elite films. Got a black and chrome 2011 jag xj. Looking at turning all the chrome black including the wheels and then turning the car red. Maybe leave roof black as it is a panoramic.

Have got a wrapped Nissan Pathfinder, turns heads and attracts a lot of attention, its a ten year old car in Matte Black, but am told it looks "sick" by youth. People approach outside the house or at the Supermarket or Fuelling up to ask about it.

Somebody mouthed "w..ker" at me the other day and gave me the gesture to go with it, someone kissed it when it was parked up in Wallasey, left make up on it, funny what a colour makes people do

Matty at Elite is a good bloke and did a great job tinting my windows.

MDP in Bebington are good for Supplies, its worth getting a few samples to check out how it looks. http://www.mdpsupplies.co.uk

Welcome to have a look if you like

Why do you want to pay good money to bugger up a beautiful looking car? Leave it be and give the money saved to charity.

That's the whole trick about wraps, the original paint is kept perfect underneath. When you come to sell it the buyer has a choice yet you've had it in the colour of your dreams (that everyone else may hate).

Not too keen on the green lol.

I contemplated getting my XF done at one stage but decided not to,however,the colour range was staggering.

A Metallic bronze/gold was my choice but i do like the pearl red too.

Yes, I have heard of full vehicle wraps. In fact one of my colleagues has full body matte white wrap on his personal car and it looks superb. I have a caravan and want to get the full body wrap for it. Do you know about a good service for this?
