Wrapped her up

nicksm3 · 09-28-2014, 08:29 PM

Well I decided to wrap my AW e92 M. I was presented a great opportunity from my friend who owns HiTech Wraps in Westchester NY. He called me up to stop by the shop so I did. He offered to wrap my car in the color I always loved. 911 Riviera Blue (matte).
He Offered to wrap my car for free with the help of me ofcoarse...I always help him out in time of need...he's a one man shop.
On to the material:
We wrapped one side of the car in vinyl and other in the new PVC material - both from ARLON. The PVC has a guaranteed life span of 10+ years and the average vinyl we are all used to or hear about is 3-5 years.
ARLON presented this opportunity to Rick and I for this being a demo project for the new product, first in the states. I jumped on it!
I can tell you this...the PVC was easier to work with, hands down!
On to the pics:
The hood was wrapped with carbon due to the fact that ARLON didn't ship enough material so we compromised in time for the Orchard Beach Car show that was held today in Bronx NY. What a big show this was! HiTech wraps certainly made an impression today. So hood will be wrapped and completed next week with the blue as planned at some point, no rush...I am more than satisfied how it all came out.

Awesome color! Looks great on the M! A friend of mine that owns Express Auto Salon here in Nola just wrapped another friend's 911 with the same.

Kinda looks like the whole car's wrapped in painter's tape...but whatever makes you happy I guess. Clean job though.

I love the color too but would have gone with the shiny instead...looks good though!

Demo was for Matte not gloss, so free wrap = why the hell not.
