Last year I was quoted wraps on the phone at around $300/panel installed
My Lexus was recently quoted last week at $1100 for a 3M matte silver with a 5 year warranty by the guy who did my roof .

WOW, i paid more than double of what you were quoted but then again the work is flawless and as i said, headlight,tail lights, door handles all trim peices,third brake light, trunk came off in order to do the best job possible. if you take a look at our doors there isnt one seam. got a warranty and all the gloss and carbon stuff is extra.

Eurocharged Performance ML63 and TT lambo
looks great...I was very close to pulling the trigger on this on my white as well until the guy doing it said ....oh white...uh you don't want white....

Let me know how it holds up....i was told it stains very easy and is a nightmare to maintain...

FWIW, a good wrap will be in the $2k -$2500 range...

its been probably over 1k miles and no rock chips or nothing yet, i have gotten all the stains out of it with a special cleaner. but yes a pain to maintain if you are picky about it. I wash it once a week and that takes a while cause i wash a panel with baby soap and then the cleaner, looks good as new when im done though. as much as i hate it it is my daily.

If you use Satin Guard, makes white into matte white.

Don't take this wrong, I just can't see the advantage. Why would you pay $2K to wrap a car when you can have it painted for the same or not much more and it's more durable and easier to maintain?

Because his Obsidian paint is perfect, a total repainted car is wothless, and he works at the shop.

If you say so, I've sold tons of repainted cars for book value without any problems. People like shiny paint regardless if it's oem or not.

Not a chance an AMG or any other specality car is worth as much totally repainted as a all original car.
