Vinyl Wrapped my FRS psychedelic
 

@ggiddix

Thanks! I work at a wrap shop! I did the work with my buddy so for just materials was $700. If u came into our shop this wrap would be like $3000

Thanks! I'm Not sure how to post a video?

How long will that last if it was a garage kept car?

4-6years. It can continue looking good but becomes harder to remove the longer it's on.

My grandson has been trying to talk me into the same. Saw a Z350 last week with that wrap and I actually really liked it.

I dare you ........... :D

Do they even make Psychedelic Lava wraps?

...am I going to have to revoke your membership to Team Lava, sir? :brokenheart:

Lol meanwhile I can't even get my CF vinyl wrap on my roof.. It always becomes jacked up. Maybe it's cause eBay quality.

TRYING

I predict that a vinyl wrap wouldn't last one winter on @Tcoats car.

Have you seen the "coating" it gets ...... :eyebulge:

Yep, in his area, I suspect they use a combination of sulfuric, hydrochloric and nitric acids all mixed with fermented beet juice ...... to de-ice roads.....:confused0068:

Very nice. Is that the new 3M color, its called hologram or something. I saw it on Premium Auto Styling YouTube. They wrapped a 17 WRX in it.

Its a color for a car they has some serious curves and lines, like the 86.

Yeah it's the new 3M gloss flip psychedelic, and the roof and side stripes, front lip are KPMF Morpheus black. It totally changes in full sun. In the shade it's just silver. It changes from moment to moment depending on how you look at it and how much sun there is.

Is that picture of your car before the wrap or after the wrap, under overcast skies .......??

"OK, lady, now tell me one more time ....... what WAS the color or the car that sped off ......??"

haha :burnrubber: ....Thats after the wrap under cloudy sky. Car was red before.

That looks amazing! It can go from flat gray to holographic. Nice work.

Here is a partly cloudy sky shot.

Now, that reminds me of a back-in-the-day story.

I was working at our Western Research Center in Richmond, CA.

A part of the complex was a pilot plant.

One day I saw this fire engine red, 1956 Ford Pickup, with chromed, reversed rims, with a for sale sign in the window, heading down to the plant.

I walked down there and ask this Mexican kid how much he was asking for it.

He said $800. It had a small block Chevrolet V-8 in it and a floor shift ..... NO rust. The teen-ager came out in me ..... I couldn't resist.

I went to the bank and drew out $800 in cash and handed it to him, and he signed over the title.

OK, the part you have been waiting for.

It had a wide band of "flip flop" tape all around the body ........ which I promptly removed before I drove it home.

So, I reckon some folks have taken the "flip flop" tape thing to a whole new level ...... :w00t:

THE END

I think Tcoat needs the following to go with his facial decoration..

On that wrap, during sunny day, is there any kind of glare/ bright reflective light that comes off (radiates) that color ( sort of like if it was a chromed color) ?

Reason why I ask, is if so then that can be a safety issue to yourself and other drivers around you. I remember Dupont had that color-shift color (not hologram in nature like your set up, but it was like a chameleon color change) , but I don't think that had any bad reflective property to it

A man of your station in life does not need that "look at me" wrap. I drive a boring-looking white car for reason, although I guess a car that changes color could be useful as well, other than the cops looking for a car that changes color.

Nope, no more glare than any shiny paint. I had a polished Al hood on my other car that was a mirror finish and even that didn't have any glare that sunglasses cant take care of.

why be boring? Plus with this vinyl it really only shows the colors under "Full Sun". Even part shade and its mostly silver/grey. which is more stealthy than the bright red it was before.

Saw this on reddit. Looks good, man.

Partly a joke.

I enjoy breaking the law in a car that does not attract attention or is memorable to people who see me do it. It's not a boring car, no matter what the color.

Depending on lighting I drive a bright orange/gold/deep red/brownish car now so a grey one that pops in the sun would not be all that different really.
Won't surprise anybody that I have a bit of a "look at me" trait in my personality. I also get people staring and yelling "nice car" every day.
I DON'T drive a boring looking-white car for a reason. I don't think the cops pay any more attention to me that they would in white. When they come up behind me to run my plates and they come back as an old guy with a clean record they just go away.

Me too. Part of that is my car does not stand out. I'm just another car (I hope) at that point.

If there a way to look a plonker you've achieved it. Full marks

Everything about that wrap is god awful.

The UK has such excellent and descriptive insults.

I did miss a full stop. No-one will notice :bonk:

















.

There's a similar one running around San Jose, CA. Not sure it's quite as attractive as the OP's. It is quite striking to see in person.

But did a little part of you laugh :lol:

I admit to a little eye rolling. If memory serves the car itself was a little rough looking.

:D
