Can i ask how they cut this stuff around the curves of the car?

Stanley knife, hobby knife??
Surely it will " score" the origina paintwork?

I watched them finish off my car and they cut around the door gaps, then fold the vinyl round with a heat gun. that way, the knife doesn't actually go on the car. I think they use a scalple blade. I thought they would leave scratches on the car as well but they showed me a van they were stripping and there wasn't any damage to the paintwork at all! Just loooked like a new van.

i too had my car wrapped by totally dynamic in enfield, and was so impressed by how quickly they got the job done!! and what a great result!! :D My car was grey, and I hd it wrapped in gloss white with the roof, lower half of the wing mirrors and some other bits in gloss black. When I pickd the car up they were also wrapping a Mclaren SLR in chrome and an M5 in matt black! They looked quality!
hi mate, how much did they charge you ?
p.s they charged me about a grand mate.

With a handle like "BlingBling" that's what Id' expect you to say :D

You can tell RS4 prices have dropped - the Max Power gang and chavs can afford them now. Yes I'm a snob :lol:
