Just got my car back from being wrapped Satin Pearl White. Original color was black. Posting pictures so everyone can see. I never really found any good pics when I was trying to get a feeler of whether it was a good idea or not.

I had a lot of small custom things done as the pics will reflect. Still need to get a good rear end shot of the car.

The pics also show the addition of front carbon fiber lip, side carbon mirrors, and rear carbon diffuser. Still awaiting the Mode Carbon rear spoiler.

Will post before and after photos.


Let me know what you guys think!

Not sure how the quality of the pics will turn out. I had to downsize them due to file size.

Well done! I visited TWM a few weeks back to see about wrapping some trim. They were already booked up that day but it looked like a good place. How'd you do the red accents on the tips?

Looks good. Radical change in color. I've thought about wrapping my Silver Wagon in something blue. How much did it cost?

What did you do with your exhaust tips? They look fantastic

Shoutout to you guys for taking care of me! If anyone needs anything from this company be sure to contact Eric @RW Carbon. Best customer service.

Thank you all for the great compliments. The wrap cost me almost $4,000, but I had a lot of small detailed things done. They also installed my carbon pieces.

Now, my exhaust tips, they were sprayed with ceramic paint in black and the inset AMG stamp was done in Red. I need to readjust my tips and bring them out some since one side is sticking out a little more than the other and it is bothering me. Once done, I will take another picture from the rear.

Looks fantastic, I'm getting the same wrap done on my E63 wagon

AMGJAY

What color?

ced357

Same as yours, satin white. My guy carries 3M and APA, he seems to be pushing APA over 3M. I going over to look at samples this week.

AMGJAY

Mine was Avery. 3M didn't have as much Pearl. Manufactures had the same warranty. Can't waif to see the pics.

How long is the wrap suppose to last? I guess it must protect the original paint too? I know very little about wrap. Is it as smooth as paint? Can you go through car washes with it ok?

Wrap looks good. I got a quote from them a few weeks back & haven't had the time to stop by there. Congrats.

AMGJAY

Wrap is suppose to be good for approximately 5 years if taken care of well. When washed it is very smooth, but often feels gritty when sand is on it. As far as car washes go it is recommended to hand wash the car but I've read you can go through an automated wash as long as it is brushless; however, I don't recommend using an automated car wash regardless if the car is wrapped or not. That's just now how I would want to treat my car. Personal preference.


Which shop quoted you? Just FYI, my car took roughly 10 days to complete since I had a lot of custom work being done along with my aftermarket carbon fiber parts being installed, but it was well worth the wait.

But aren't engine bay, door jams, hinges, still black? If so it would look odd to me. Nice job though, and nice color.

Actually, I'd be more concerned if those areas were any other color. Black still works IMO.
