I don't know why exactly, but I love the purple. Nice job!

Any plans for an exhaust or even JDM tips?

So how durable is the wrap and how long will it last? I think it turned out great, and you picked a great shade of purple, when I saw your thread title I was thinking "oh no, a Barneymobile", but it is definitely not Barney purple.

Well it all depends on the color & car. My boyfriend did it for me at his shop. But something like this would run you about $2200.

Thank you! If well kept this wrap can last you anywhere from 3-5 years!

Clear bra on my nsx (i miss her) full front and did the rockers, mirrors, a-arms, spoiler, bits of side intakes, $1300ish, so wrapping the entire car sounds right at $2200, but question is can the colored vynil Wrap protect as well? Seems like a cool option for switching colors. Id change mine to gloss black

. Or a color I've always wanted but too afraid to commit lol

Yea, the vinyl definitely protects your paint! And it can last you up to 5 years if well kept. Your in Cali too, so its always hot & sunny there which is the perfect vinyl weather, it'll increase the longevity of the wrap. The matte colors are really in right now, when I change mine it'll definitely be another matte color.
