Chloe 2.0! LES GIT ET!
So a few months ago I decided to post and some of you may remember. Link is below.
http://www.e90post.com/forums/showth...ighlight=chloe Heres an update. Id like to thank Jay over at JG Mods, def a very pleasant person to deal with and I look forward to doing business with him in the future. I got both my Mtech bumpers and M3 sides from him, transaction was quick and easy. Will be going to him for my CSL trunk, hopefully soon. So, on to business. First time wrapping, and before anyone points it out. Yes I messed up on the door. I ran out of vinyl, so I had to improvise. If anyone has tips on how to blend them, Id be open to it. I will prob end up buying a new piece and redoing the door. All in all, took me prob about 50 hours? Def had its ups and downs. Alot more downs, but the end result is pretty satisfying. Without further ado. Pictures!

I think the concern should be the labor lol. Cost me a roll of vinyl and about 50 hours of my life.

mate, i think you did a great job of that! Did you have any help? because i thought wrapping was a two man job?
Is that a matte silver or grey? But i like the fact is it lighter than the usual, or is that just the sunlight and camera? Well done bud! |

Yea, I'll get a pick later today. TBH it looks ugly up close, but from a distance its fine lol.
The color is actually Matte Gunmetal Grey Metallic. And for the most part I did it alone. I did have my brother come out and help me lay some of the pieces down to minimize wrinkles before smoothing out the bubbles.
