Wink Had My **** Done...

Had the rear bumper "wrapped" whilst I was away & put it back on today.







Still need a bit of "highlighting" so a quick Photoshop shows how it should end up.





There might be a bit of writing in white too but we'll see.

Once that's done then its just the front left to finish off...

Are you saying the car is still white, and that horrible purple/pink stuff is just one big sticker?

To be precise

The purple is the base vinyl covering with the pink/white as stickers on top.

This is different to the pre-printed designs that are one sheet of vinyl.


And yes, if I wanted to, I could take a hair-dryer to the car and make it white again.


If I wanted to...

Interesting.
It sort of reminds me of a film I saw as a kid. Think it was one of the cannonball runs, with Burt Reynolds. They had a car that was had some paint on it it, one whole colour. Then when they went in a car wash, it washed of to reveal another colour, and they got away from the cops. Unless that was some weird dream I had
Still interesting.
Are the door shuts still white then?

How much would a pre-printed full wrap cost, fitted?

Dunno, sorry. Mine was a "special" due to the fact we've done about 40 vans with them and Work covering it

Our Primastar vans are wrapped/stickered @ about £1150 each and I think it's comparable to that. There's lots of companies out there (and on here) that do this sort of thing.

this may sound daft but why didnt you just paint it purple? surely it would be much easier/cheeper to have painted the car purple then applied the pink stripes?

Would cost the same (if not more to paint) and i expect a white car will be easier to sell than a purple one.

Looks good BTW
