LOL @ Bam, it did look like a bloody Cow at one point!

Rick / Sonny, it does look black there actually, but must be just the lighting or lack of in the garage TBH

Thanks

Thanks fella, honestly as i've been there and done that, NEVER AGAIN I would say, but if you really fancy a change (white does look good), then go for it, but remember, the wraps always look good from a distance and in pics etc, up close they can never compare to paintwork, especially pearlescent colours, saying that, loads of people always thought that my car was ACTUALLY white up until now!

Also, if you appreciate washing/claying/waxing/detailing etc, then you may aswel forget about it, as all I used on the wrap was water (sometimes abit of soap/shampoo) and a wash mitt. 30 minutes, job done.
Now I look forward to spending hours if not days on it :biggrin3:

I was thinking this too.

Looks a balls ache! Great colour underneath. There are not that many Mugello cars on here. Think we only had 1 (out of (30ish cars) at the National RS4 meet last year.
Yeah i've noticed that Sonny, and the ones i've seen/come across have been Avants, I love Mugello partly for this reason alone!

To be honest I would have only settled for Mugello (Alu Optics), Avus or Daytona (both with black Optics) on the B7 as both are quite subtle and underrated.



Of course your usual suspects; Sprint, Black, Misano, Imola are awesome in their own right
