The only thing is you have to have someone that does wraps and I know he is one of the best in the business. Luckily, he is only 20 min away from my house and has done work for me in the past on previous vehicles and is absolutely amazing. I think with saddle brown interior this color combination will be second to none!! Congrats man, you have a beautiful vehicle!!

Do you do wraps for a living or did you just do this in your free time?!? If you just did this in your free time I have to hand it to you and say you did one hell of a job! Cant even tell its a wrap IMO
I used to wrap with the company a couple years back, but I didn't have any part of this install. They put their 2 most senior guys on it and it took them almost 3 days. Its one of the cleanest installs I have seen, they really took their time and it shows in all the details.

When I read you were going to post pics with your SLR, I thought: lucky guy, owns two great cars. So I quickly scrolled down to se the M3 with the SLR. Then I figured single lens reflex, silly me
Thanks! Technically it's not matte, its a Satin finish (10-20% gloss i believe) HAHA I wish i was rolling an SLR also. Maybe one of these days haha.

Quick question (and not to thread jack): I'm taking a photography class, so am curious what you are doing when you set the camera on the tripod (unless all of them were after it broke). Are you using shutter priority and leaving the shutter open for a longer time, or using full manual? Complete newb question, I know. I just got a tripod today for my Canon 6D so thought I'd ask how you get those amazing shots. Any advice would help
No worries. Yea it broke before I could even set up shop to shoot the ///M. I normally take different exposure shots via keeping the shutter open for different lengths of time, then combined 2-4 exposures into a HDR image in photomatix. Then after that I will export to lightroom/photoshop and do some final edits/touchups. These were point and shoot with very very mild editing. I'm planning on a very indepth shoot this weekend weather permitting if my new tripod comes in!

Price will vary, depending on the shop and materials used. But Premier Graphics out of Denver would do something very similar with off the shelf vinyl (high quality 3M) your looking at a base cost of $2,000.00 Obviously custom colors would = more $$

They wrapped my track bike in Matte Leguna Seca blue and carbon, and that job even though it required alot less material, ran me the same $$$ because it was a one off print.

Yea, I need to clearcoat it, then get it wrapped to match the rest of the body.

Yea please post the 3M code. I have a AW as well and would love to get this satin wrap.

A question for OP, do you recommend getting all body mods (lip, spoiler) done first? Or can someone do the wrap, and change out front lips and spoilers after?

That is one VERY clean looking wrap job.

You know it's good when we start asking if its paint or wrap.

Good job. Win

Look above for link. We removed everything we could do install the wrap. Its not needed, but these little details is what makes the quality so high with the end result.

Indeed, the guys at Premier Graphics are phenomenal when it comes to laying vinyl!

Nope. Just a quick wipedown with cleaner and maybe some alcohol to remove any extra adhesive. It acts like a clear bra and actually protects the paint under the vinyl.

Gorgeous wrap and all around nice looking car! Approximately how long will this 3M wrap last and can it tolerate the exposure of a daily driver?
