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.

2300.00 seems REALLY reasonable. What part of the country do you live? In my area,Washington DC,that job is 6K

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

Once again, it looks fantastic. These guys are obviously very good at what they do.

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
