Don't think long term that's something I should be considering for this car, but then again since when has wrap been long term  :grin:

What sort were you thinking exactly... anywho that shizzle aint cheap to do now is it... unless like everything else on this car its homebrew!  :grin:

now I would have gone two's on that if i'd known... wouldn't mind mine rocking in carbon for a year or so, think it would suit it.

Well i am currently looking into buying big rolls of vinyl that i can use to wrap cars and parts.. and sell on for pretty much my cost price to forum members.. i recon i could contact a big supplier and get 10-15m rolls for about £100 we will see..  :cool:

You any good at wrapping?  never done a car panel before let alone an entire car. I am finding the whole idea very tempting for mine next year now!

Ive done a few bits and bobs which come out alright.. If the mini ends up staying i want to wrap it matt white... if you can get the vinyl cheap enough and do it yourself you could have a different colour car totally for £150..

Hmmmm, I gave this thought once but then thought, nah... too much wrapping to do, but the more I think about it now the more I want to do it again... A mk1 can't be that hard, it's practically a box!  :grin:
