where to source car vinyl

fo55il · 12-26-2014, 03:59 AM

Hi guys,

Any sources for car vinyl here? Thinking of doing a diy.

Looking for a frozen grey colour.

Thanks

Oh, so now you wanna go all vinyl on your car as well, hey??? :P

im wanting to go frozen grey or frozen laguna seca blue let me know if you find a good quality vinyl

fo55il · 12-26-2014, 07:02 AM

Basically, want to do it because am going to be sourcing some body goodies and cant justify the resprays. Since i am a DIY person, would rather myself.

nash - i want to do something a bit more original than matte black.... that i ran about 10 years ago. we all know where you got that inspiration from

cartaa - so far ebay seems to be the cheapest. 5ft is the widest ive found (im going to have to measure the bonnet tomorrow)

nash_86 · 12-26-2014, 07:08 AM

Lol. Definitely the inspiration and creativity came from my own vivid imagination!

As for DIY, I'd recommend against it. You're better off paying the $3k than DIY and seeing ur 335i look like crap when it starts to bubble and peel.

nash_86 · 12-26-2014, 07:17 AM

Best brands for vinyl imo are Avery and 3M. Wouldn't touch anything else. Mine's a 3M wrap FYI.

fo55il · 12-26-2014, 07:21 AM

NASH - u haven't even ever changed a Tyre by yourself lol leave the diy to us.

cant find avery in frozen grey but some brand arlon.

unfortunately your vivid imagination is lagging. that 56k brah hahah

nash_86 · 12-26-2014, 07:29 AM

Just get the expert to do it. Don't be cheap lah!

fo55il · 12-26-2014, 07:33 AM

nash_86 · 12-26-2014, 07:50 AM

You do realise BMW's don't have spare tyres????

Socket · 12-26-2014, 07:51 AM

this ought to be good

nash_86 · 12-26-2014, 07:55 AM

Lol Socket. Well, we can't have too many Space Grey 335i's running around Melbourne, can we now? (Btw, mine was space grey before I went matte black)

fo55il · 12-26-2014, 07:55 AM

Yeah they do; pay extra for one. id recommend you invest in one lol

nash_86 · 12-26-2014, 08:22 AM

Fossil didn't even know what tyres he had on his car the other day I called him. Had to kindly introduce him to the world of Michelin Pilot Super Sports.

fo55il · 12-26-2014, 08:38 AM

I havent had the need to change my tyres, no hooning from me and popping tyres unlike some ....

nash_86 · 12-26-2014, 08:57 AM

Excuse me! It's been 2 years since I last lost a demerit point. Didn't you lose your license only just recently??

Socket · 12-26-2014, 08:58 AM

where do you put that? on the back seat or strapped to the roof?

nash_86 · 12-26-2014, 09:02 AM

That's definitely not for the 335i. It's probably for another BMW model.
