They probably buy the black carbon wrap in bulk and get a discount on it. They might have to order in your silver wrap leading to the extra cost  :sad:

found a place that will do the silver carbon wrap for £150.

do you guys think thats a good price, and do you think it will look good, or cheap and crappy?

I would try and find out what materials they use.

In my opinion 3M carbon wrap is by far the best.

just a thought, depending on the colour change of the paint due to the sun ect wouldnt the whole front end need to be painted so it wouldnt look odd, or would he get away with just the bonnet painted ?
