Looks like a fantastic job. Also curious regarding what you paid. I want to do this to another one of my cars. I like the white on my SL63, but am having the roof, A and C pillars done in carbon fiber. Will post a pic when done.

4 Days and $2,300. I'm changing it again to a deeper red. I'm going for the factory Mars Red look

Thank you. I've gotten a lot of compliments but I was going for a different red. I'm going to try again with Avery Carmine Red.

It's a shame you had them wrap the carbon fiber spoiler, that's what would look great compared to not even really seeing it on your OEM paint.

2nd Vinyl Wrap - Mars Red Match
Just picked up my freshly (re)wrapped SL63! It was originally black, then wrapped in a red I didn't quite like, now it's great! I also had them do a few "special touches". Love it! — I don't like the contrast of the carbon fiber with the red so I had it covered too. Work done by Wrap Bully's in Los Angeles

Boy that really does look good

Surely a lot cheaper than new paint....

Hope you don't mind if i ask some questions...

How do you clean it ?

Will it still be shiny in a year ?

What did they say about removing it in the future ?

Any guarantees that it wont pull off some paint when its removed ?

Thanks

Mike

Just read the Wrap Bully FAQ on their website, seems like a pretty legit place. I used to do some vinyl sign graphics and car/bike graphics...

Everything I read was spot on with my own knowledge...

That color looks much better IMO. Looks similar to the Ferrari Rosso Corsa
