If you're doing the wrapping then 20 meters x 1.52 meters is needed, allow 5 meters for waste.

Okay thanks, have you already wrapped a mk4 yourself?

I am looking for a 20m roll so we can cut up where necessary

what ever you do, dont do matte colours, they just look like you cant afford to get a proper paint job.

saw a bently last year painted in a matte dark grey/black colour, looked absolutly poo and just looked like they had bought a bently that had been crashed and theyd repaired it but couldnt afford to get it painted...

but as said 20m should be more than enough

pearly/girly  :laugh:

Like grey to be honest, quite smart and I live on a high street so my car is always dirty due to the volume of traffic that goes past...white would be murder and would end up grey anyway!  :grin:

My choice would gloss red, it looks superb and you can wax it. Red car, black wheels, black roof, black wing mirrors, winning combo every time.

Theres so many colours to choose from but I want something quite subtle but different thats why im thinking of a satin/matte finish.
