i received a couple PMs requesting some up close shots so here are a couple. obviously we will do a full shoot sometime soon, but here are a couple for now. i finally got the gloss black trim put back together after wrapping it and you will also notice that i completely took apart the mirrors, wrapped them satin white and painted the base & trim gloss black as well (they were faded/cloudy matte black from years of wear) to match the full these. i think it all turned out nicely.

Fantastic work Chris! You've inspired me to have a go and today I ordered a roll of satin black 1.5 x 20m.
I've wrapped interior bits, bonnets and a motorbike before but never a whole car. I think for me the hardest bit will be the rear quarter and along the pillars n door shuts.
Any advice n tips on best way to attempt this? I'd love to see some close up pics of the edges n door shuts etc to see how neat you manage to get it and how far round you wrap.
Keep up the great work n lookin forward to seeing the end result, not to mention what you do with your own ride!
