"Cabon'd" my front lip

Post by Scottyr81 » Fri Mar 22, 2019 5:28 pm

It is only a wrap but looks good I reckon, I did have the silver front lip so an improvement in my opinion. Expensive vinyl too so should look the part.

Oooh Eck. That's decent that. With aluminium trim pack too. Possible to get some more wider angle photos? With more of carving shot? To get an overall impression?

I'd thought about this too but didn't know if it would look ok with the aluminium trim. 3M 1080 vinyl? Do it yourself? I've got sepang blue so still not sure.

I'll get some more shots next week, it's at a mates who "wraps" for the weekend, he's attempting the rear valance tomorrow, I'll get the spec on the vinyl used too, all I know is 2m of the stuff cost £150.00! My car is Palace Blue Pearl Effect so the aluminium trim stood out to say the least, this should darken the front end down a bit.

Nice. Rare colour that. Look forward to it.

Haha. Could be doubly ironic. My car is currently in getting them refinished to factory Matt titanium Image few other things too including a new rear diff free under warranty. Full bushes all round and other tweaks. Been without him 2 weeks. Can't wait to get him back.

Was the diff whining or making a noise then? Had you posted this? I know you were having the wheels sorted but the rest?

Sorry mate. Just dropped into conversation. Not been on much. Posting anyway. Reading though.

I'll do a thread over weekend. Basically off the back of everything we'd spoke about, my purchasing dealership gave it a thorough going over as I had some niggles. They've been brilliant. Really well handled. I'll PM ya.
