As far as price, that's something you'd have to discussm with ACG. I know I've been quoted from other places in SD between $5000-7000k for the entire car.
Oh, and I forgot to add, we're matching the chrome pieces/emblems to the brushed aluminum look of the wheels.

It's a clear bra protective covering with the matte finish. Didn't want to just do a normal hood clear bra because of the lackluster one had I on my E55, but this gave me he ability to give the car a flat matte finish and protect the entire car at the same time.

You couldn't hold it in could you lol.... I don't blame you after I started to send you teaser in progress photos... we'll have the full vehicle wrapped today, then we'll install the bumper and lights. Next we'll install all of the "brush tinted" chrome pieces and she'll be ready to come home.

The fact that James and the ACG crew have put so much time and effort into my car and really going beyond the call of duty to get this done in a timely fashion, just reinforces why I have trusted them with my car. As I told James recently (and as I have lamented in posts here), "Remember when I said I wasn't going to mod my car?" Well this wrap looks like it's going to be super bananas!!!

Wait until i send you pictures of the tinted chrome pieces... so far we have the hood, passenger and driver side doors, rear quarter and fenders completed. we're just about to start on the roof, then trunk, bumpers, rear spoiler. we'll reinstall the door handles and roof rail, wrap those and maybe call it a day.
I'll post a few more pictures as we get to them, enjoy.

To do this job properly, you need to remove all of the chrome trim, door handles, grille, loosen the bumpers, remove the mirrors etc... its a lot of work but the end results will speak for themselves...

Keep saving those extra pennies so James can install a Weistec for you next.
James: Since you have his bumper off, will there be any benefit in removing the cover that blocks the front driver-side vent on the bumper cover? I'm thinking it may enhance cooling a little.
