Awesome. Way better than plastidip. Only problem is getting unwanted attention, what else you / they have planned?

Looks good. I agree with the drop and definitely taking the edge off the side markers. But I disagree with black wheels, I'd go for gold.

Looks nice and clean. A drop and wheels would complete the look.

Not a fan of the matte look on the car, but I agree... MUCH better than the rigged plasti-dip version.

This has already been asked but how much did this cost ? and what is projected life of the wrap before the first peeling appears ?

I don't know the owner but it was wrapped by wrapyourcar.ca
To everyone asking you would expect to pay anywhere from 1.5 grand up. I would say buy your own vinyl wrap and do it yourself if you have time. (there's a diy in the guide section)
I personally would go for a deeper matte black!

I like the color, a lot. Not something I'm going for right now on my car, but I would in a few years when it needs new paint.

Thumbs up. Yes, spray the markers, and all lenses with a light tint, but NO gloss. It will match rather well that way, and tint tend to look a little mat if you dont polish before it dries.
