How much do full vinyl wraps cost? Not planning on one, curious at the price.

Mine was the first wrapped with clear matte vinyl and carbon lowers by Robbie at Valet Magic, cost £1400 for the matte and £400 for the carbon lowers. Looks like a factory finish! Just a bugger with soot on the back, spent an hour today getting it off!!

awsome piece of kit, but for the price tag it should be, saying that though one joints had a slight blow, but thats gasket more than exhaust, if anything its too loud in the fact that it may not pass track day requirements.

Heres a shot from Beachy Head... too many people so could only put the car in the parking areas. Hoping that in winter I can get the car in the road.

hahaaa... not yet!! Did chase down a Ferrari 360 through some twist roads (not silly revs and 50% throttle) and had the back step out a little, not quite expected, but was a lot more controllable than my old 480bhp supra

Another edit from Beachy Head, I take a long time editting pics

I was thinking of booking in at Silverstone for the GTR experience so I can push someone elses car on track first to see where the limits are £255.

http://www.silverstone.co.uk/experie...-Experiences1/

Post the unmolested photo so we can see if it's your photograhy or editing skills that create the result. For all we know you have a Blue screen in your garage and the above is a composite

Hmmm, nice idea... Was going to do the drift day on the GTR forum, but have something else on the day that could have been a lot of fun!!! Looks pretty good, get to thrash someone elses GTR when you looking at going? might be nice to arrange a "scoobynet GTR owners" dayout Can take our own cars and I can take some photos, on the track, in the pits, etc.

Unmolested photo - only removed number plate, wish it was just a blue screen

Here's the next available dates

September 20
October 20, 31
November 05, 06

Sept 20th too soon, car won't be run in by then. 5th and 6th Nov would suit me best and gives us time to book in well in advance. It's first come first served so we need to pay and book a date if there's a few of us going.

Alloy you up for it? And Midlfie crisis, where's he based?

Edited: Nice colour mods on the photo.

Anders

October or November is good for me. Definitely game

Cheers... original photo could have been better, IE. in the road, road lines going the proper way and on a better stretch of road, but too many people and cars. Hoping a good winters day will see less people.
