Well.....

it isn't the easiest thing to remove a wrap.......but it is nice and shiney
underneath......
you guys know there is a VIN under your plate?
it's na-nice to see the black again......
new wheels next week too

RobbieRob

That doesn't look like fun at all, but the black looks real nice hiding under there. What wheels did you go with, and size?

BenzV12

Literally tearing money apart because that wrap was not cheap either lol
Well, end of an era and back to its roots

hyperion667

not much.....but rewarding! have some noobs coming from HRE: P43 in an 18 inch...basically the same as the R43, but this will have clear brush tint finish......a very nice finish indeed
you know what? I thought the same thing
trying to decide on what shade of green I'll go with next....

also: I like this two tone look LOL

Pntblnk

Hype - hurry and find a Bengal's fan to buy that for 2x value! lol...

Do you already have your copy of SkyFall reserved for Tuesday? Saw the BB add this morning this am and thought of you. The collectors set is also on sale for $149 but think you already have them all.

hyperion667

haha....

didn't know it was coming already, that was fast.....yes, I have the DVD box set with the extra spot for the new one

Arrie

So that bright ugly yellow was actually a wrap. How in the hell can you even buy a car with a wrap?

BM2BZ

holy cow, hype ! i bet you'll draw more attention now w/half the wrap off than the whole orange pumpkin look . can't wait to see the new wheels on !

hyperion667

thanx brother me too......
I did actually drive a few places today......
the badge shadows are really bugging me too.....

BenzV12

Two tone doesn't look shabby at all may be if you can find some $ US bonds in wrap these would cooler . It's , however, don't think it's a good idea because some people around would think you are flaunting lol

hyperion667

I did send Tropicana an email asking if they'd give me some free juice in exchange for doing some 'advertising' lol.....

but they said no

dfordham

According to this commercial, that wrap will come right off if you drive fast enough.

Don

hyperion667

haha, pretty good Don, forgot about that one
there is a limiter on my car for 135 I think

JackDaRippa

People are going to start asking each other, what happened to that orange E Class, not knowing its still around in its original form lol..

I've been looking everywhere online for that all black hood badge, can you point me to a direction where I can get one?

SoCalCLK

I'm on that one already! SkyFall FTW. They need to bring the Gunbarrel sequence to the beginning again, enough alreadt

K-A

Hype, if you didn't bump this at full volume with that wrap on, you gotta get that wrap back on, and bump this.

hyperion667

that is a regular flat painted black.......probably going to scrap it......if you don't find one, I'll sell you this one.......
haha! industrial!!!!! not heard that in a LONG time

hyperion667

BM2BZ

are those your new wheels ?

BM2BZ

hype, i found your w212's long lost cousin and that belongs to one of the members, tge4:

hyperion667

yes! p43 with a clear brush tint finish
haha! is that a Datsun?

MishaDesigns

lol at the Benz commercial. How long was the process on the removal?

hyperion667

haha....

it took about 3 hours all together......but there is still glue that will need to be removed, counting on the detail guys for that tomorrow when I might have some better pictures
the wrap itself wasn't too bad......If I can do it.......anyone can
the front panels were easiest as I waited until after I got home from dinner....but I used a hairdryer and a small heat gun for the rest of it....
it was only on the car 110 days, so I think that if it were on longer it would be more of a pita too remove.....but I'm not sure....

but now, I've had a wrap, and it was fun...........
next time I won't skimp on the workmanship, as there were seams here and there........places where you'd think to yourself.......'man, there shouldn't be a seam there'

but whatever you know?

here are a couple more of the noobs

K-A

Did the wrap leave any residue that was hard to remove, any scuffs or scratches/marring/swirls, or does the paint look literally as good as the day you put the wrap on? (which actually is funny as the wrap just saved you months of extra "wear" on the paint, as the paint wasn't subject to surface elements, UV rays, etc.).

Edit: Just saw you said there's some glue leftover.

BM2BZ

are they 19"? looking good !

yes, that's a datsun .
