I'm sure the purists would hate it! At least with vinyl you should be able to undo it if you change your mind or want to sell the car!

I saw a hawkeye with a matt black wrap and it looked awesome. Never liked the whole wrapping idea though.

I like wrap as long as it's not a cheap rip=off of something like carbon. If it was a flat colour like black then it's certainly a good way to test out your options rather than jump in for a respray. Things like fake carbon wrap just scream 'cheap' and 'Halfords' though
That black Scoob above looks good.

Saw one of those sporty pugs today (RCZ) with a chrome wrap, looked pretty good.

I'd go with a respray if spending that much and do it properly!!
But I'm biased

On certain cars I think the matte black look works quite well, I'm not sure about the P1, it would certainly be different and unique though
