CLS55 plus a few Ducati's
Yet another example of how money doesn't buy taste. That is so tacky it is ridiculous.

Yeah if someone has any idea or can give me a ballpark quote - I'll know if it's worth investigating further or not.

From DBX we would probably do it for about 6k
The reason its so much more than a normal wrap (Matte/Satin/other) is not only is the cost of the material higher the material its self is much harder to work with its an easy F-up and you can stretch it worth a damn.

However a bonus point about the chrome wrap over the paint is it holds up against the road way better. this car went on the west side of goldRush rally and was only minimally damaged where as with a paint a rock its an automatic chip.

I would have to say though I would love to get a chance to wrap a Shelby whether it be chrome or any of our other colors options...if you want you can email either me or the owner about a further quotes.

I think instead of people getting those Euro plates we should all switch over to Middle Eastern plates...

Start a new trend, y'know what I mean?

I agree w/ the middle eastern plates. I want no part of trying to make 70% income tax look cool.

Kyivk - I'll send an email in a little bit.

Hahaha, I think you're safe. On the other hand - if anyone asks if you're from Dubai/ bought the vehicle there, ect - you'll have to own up to just trying to look cool OR come up w/ a lie so ridiculous they think it has to be true!

Haha, well it's lonely at the top of the mountain! They're forced to chrome wrap their cars to make up for their lack of social life up there.

Perhaps the just might like the chrome them self....though I don't think that occurs to many people (Obviously)

I'm planning on wrapping me E55 when I get it it and I'm think either Matte metallic blue or chrome for a first wrap on the car and I'm not loaded to the point of saying "I have too much money and nothing to do with it".... I like the chrome cause its just baller that's all.
If other enjoy it that's great but it would be for me more than any one else
