Looks great ! Black on white combo gives it a race edge, have you got black alloys?

Whatever you do though don't go for a black bonnet in fear of being taken for a taxi ! We have taxis round here that are white and they seem to have black bonnets and roofs???? Branding I guess.

ive always wondered how the wrap would cope with bird droppings compared to paint?  :undecided:

No just the standard monza shadows fitted  :smiley:

Guy that fitted the wrap put a polish over the top of it which just looked like autoglym srp if my eyes didn't deceive me, the wrap is actually better quality than I thought, just as glossy as my recently sprayed diffuser but I suppose time will tell on how it holds up  :smiley:

Looks amazing. It actually looks in the picture as if you have a panoramic glass roof. Was it expensive to do if you don't mind me asking?

It was £120 for anyone interested, that included the little roof bit in front of the spoiler which the guy was reluctant to tackle in the first place haha
