so i realized i didn't post pics of my car after being vinyled.

like it or hate it, i don't care, it's coming off in a year anyways.

dragon_27

you vinyled the whole thing? how much it cost?

ahmadk

i love matte white !!

dynomite05

Why would we hate it? It looks great! How much did it cost?

WoW! That looks SICK!!! (I'm a BIG fan of white CLKs)

White matte vinyl wrap, dropped, 19" rims (HRE?), ///AMG 6/4 pot brakes, and CF mirror covers! Care to share where you got all these great parts?

dynomite05

Good eye Carlos. I didn't even notice those details on my phone. Definitely a nice setup, good work! By not having a spoiler on it kind of makes the car look longer, I like.

I like the matte white look, absolutely love the new SL in matte. Is it just the picture or do you have a bubble in the vinyl on the rear bumper cover, inside the concave flare?

jagundo

Wow, very nice, although it looks just white in the pics. You can't really appreciate it.

How much was it?

henry47

I did the labor myself, materials cost approx $500.

henry47

the wheels are actually some brand i forgot the name of. lol

the brakes came with the car, it's actually a clk55. the "cf mirror covers" are actually my laziness. i didn't wrap the mirrors cuz it was too much trouble to remove the mirrors.

henry47

yes, you are right, there is a bubble there. i tried to remove it but it keeps popping up every now and then.

henry47

yeah, i was thinking about putting the spoiler back on, but i think it looks nice without it.

eventually after a few weeks ill probably wrap the spoiler and put it back on though

thanks for the great feedback guys.

Looks great. What year is your CLK55? I noticed the black headliner which comes on the newer 55's but the tails are the pre-facelift. Also, black badges would really set it off.

user 76208202

PS any upclose pictures?

dynomite05

I want a black headliner!

user 76208202

Do et. Suede it up and as far as the plastic parts i can give you my vin (i got black plastic pieces in my headliner to go with the black vinyl) you got it.

dynomite05

Lol I was thinking of doing the black suede. Either that or black alcantara.

Clkboi

i dont think anyone can hate on that car that looks crazy man. Do you have past experience in Vinyl or is this your first time?
I would LOVE to vinyl my car in matte white but i know i will fail like there is no tomorrow lol.

Awesome job man your car really looks great i love it

Speedriven1

Looks like a million bucks. Any shots of the front 3/4?

henry47

thanks for the kind words

i had no experience doing vinyl, it was my first time. if you look REALLY closely (within a foot of the car) you can tell it's vinyled because of how the vinyl wraps in the gap (especially in the corners) but from any further, you can't really tell.

you should give it a try, the bumpers are the WORST.

henry47

i'll take some in the next few days but the front bumper needs to be redone. it was the most difficult section to do and it still came out ugly.

Kevwood

henry47 - my hat off to you mate, you did a really nice job! I've always appreciated guys that do their own projects as you've done here. Looking forward to the next round of pics.

EuroTra$H

Roderick wheels. Nice choice!

I like the White wrap as well.

user 76208202

OP: Is there any you can take pictures with the door open? Just wanna see what it looks like vinyld up

bheng

wow that looks sick! 500=new "paint" color of choice. i actually contemplated doing this when i parked next to a e90. something looked off but the car looked sick. turned out the guy vinyled his car white. up close there are some imperfections.

my worry is only how it gets taken off. and how it will adhere in sunlight? i wouldnt wanna have any regrets a year or so down the road to get my car back to silver.
