    I wouldn't think so as the original colour was grey to begin with

      You'd have to notify them when changing from black to grey, though

          Any updates BLN355? I'm keen to see the result! I'm seriously considering getting a wrap done on my car.

                      Yeah there is a few carbon fibre look vinyls out there. Any competent sign company/vehicle wrapper should be able to do the job

                        Count me in as an admirer, as well... either that, or you are one tricky photographer!

                        So how much does it cost to do something like this? Is it easy to keep the material taut? How does it stay in place? What happens to the edges of the wrapping material? What about the paint underneath?

                        I have learned more ways to part with my cash on this forum than I ever imagined...

                            HOLY S**T THAT IS AWESOME!!! I am not a fan of matt finishes but you have sole heartily convinced me that it can work to massive effect. Excelent job mate, looks absolutely amazing. The car looks complete and I mean COMPLETE, the whole setup makes it look wicked. I don't think you could improve that more if you tried!!!

                            Once again great job and I hope you enjoy it!!!

                              I agree. Looks very good. Wonder why they don't do this kind of thing at the factory..
