The wrap is about the only quality mod on that car. Everything else is a fail. From the wheels, to the kit and of course being a poser is automatic death to the car. I threw up a little in my mouth.

I didn't even pay attention to tell if it wasnt a C55, that is sad so sad. He even had V8 Kompressor on the side. Its worst if he races slow cars and loses that will hurt the AMG Badge.

Matte, flat, whatever you call it looks like crap on every car I've ever seen it on. Makes it look like the money ran out during the paint job. Nothing looks better than a perfectly polished out paint job. Yeah, definately not a C55. Luxury sedan interior...

The matte wraps look good on some cars... but on this HELL NO! and the body kit plus being a poser... I am ashamed that AMG badges are so cheap... I see E500 "AMGs" all the time! LMAO i cant stand them... so when I drive by them I give them a nice heavy right foot to remind them of their place!

Car wrapping is very popular here in Germany. In the meanwhile every second fancy car gets a new color
I wrapped my C55 "anthracite metallic matte" last year. Before that I had it matte white which I would´t recommend due to its tendency to get dirty all the time !!

a $3k paint job won't be thorough, or the quality you want. A $3k vinyl wrap job will be very well done, and come time for change/ time to sell the car, you pull the vinyl off, and the paint hasn't aged a bit since you wrapped it, and you've got a factory paint job still on the car

In argument for wrapping, you have to look at it this way:
