Hey guys so i wanted to start a thread and see what wraps people are doing on their cars and was contemplating it my self but not sure what color or style. i have a E90 and the paint is kinda gnarly and want to wrap it since i have a buddy who owns a shop i was just curious to see some other beamers that have been wrapped so give some feedback and post some pics of some cars that you have or have seen wrapped tell us what you think.

You should post a picture of your car. I've seen many people doing bold colors on cars that aren't modded enough to pull off the color. I really like matte pearl white though.

If you google "wrapped e90" the first page is literally all e90post/m3post results and even some youtube videos.

This is such a vague post lol

You can search wrapped vehicles in the photo for your best bet.

Since it would be at a friends shop and you aren't doing it yourself, I would say go for it but color and style is totally a personal preference sort of deal.

What are we working with and what look are you going for?

I got a E90 328 right now but I'm looking to replace and honestly looking to stand out a lil more
I'm likening the matte color options right now

Vinyl wrap has gone a long way and their quality is quite close to paint. Obviously they don't last as long as paint, but the bright side is they are completely reversible and they do a very good job at protecting your paint, especially the roof which is exposed to sun UV the most. Vinyl wrap has so many exotic colors to choose from as well. Like others have said, a simple google search would yield many results and images of fully wrapped cars.

I'd say go for it. Now also keep in mind that a good wrap also depends on your current paint condition. If you have a lot of paint chips or deep scratches, you will find bubbles at those flaws. May be a good idea to fill those chips/scratches to even out the surface for a better vinyl wrap application.

Anyone know what it runs price wise?

Oooh really? I'd love to do the same to my e93 too. I'm guessing $4k but every region is different.

@dgritti I suggest a blue. The matte blue wraps always look best if you want something that stands out that isn't cheesy too.

I'm sure where you live makes a difference on the labor cost. If there are a lot of competitions in your area, then I'm sure you can find a good deal.

Material can cost between $500-1200 depends on what brand and color of vinyl you buy. Labor is anywhere between $1000-$3000.

I always like the matte silver/gray...the blue just seems like a bit much

[dgritti]

Yeah I saw a guy who has a matte blue e93 on insta and it was amazing thinking i might have to to do that. Also saw a pearl white one and it was sick as we'll SO MANY OPTIONS THE STRUGGLE IS REALLLLL

[dgritti]

so I'm thinking i might go with a matte blue finish for my e90 with a carbon fiber roof wrap what y'all think

[Esveesh]

Matte blue will stand out and looks dope. I wouldn't personally do the carbon fiber hood but it will look nice

[gatorheel]

~$600-700 diy; metrorestyling or autovinylsolutions.

[jeeve.x]

I wanted to wrap my car during the summer. Started with the roof, did it twice, came out great (my mechanic could not believe it was a DIY) but the m3 bumper proved too tricky.

If you have the time and patience, definitely try to do it yourself. It's fun and rewarding and possibly another source of income lol

[koches]

I wrapped my hood anthracite carbon fiber actually and got a million compliments unintentiallly because my paint was also in bad shape.
