[joeishmather]

Wrapped my wing mirrors earlier, well one of them, it's not on the car yet but took some pics of when o was wrapping it... What do you think?

Looks tidy from the pics mate, will be interesting to see them on the car

[joeishmather]

I'm not sure how they'll look if I'm honest it's silver car with all the Renault f1 decals so think it might be too much, reason I've done it is that there's a crack on the casing of one of them and this hides it!!lol

Fitted pics...

in responce to your question on the other post,
yeah, fairly easy really, i took the cover off, and did all of it, i did go somewhere for advice and to see how much they'd charge and they wanted £70 so i was like ehh, NO!lol
anyways yeah easy, just really heat up the viynal i used 2 hairdriers 1 blowing hot into the next, so it got hot enough, as i dont have a heat gun, apparently you should get it to 90 degrees so it looses its memory or something?
also i was told after doing it cool it down alot because if any further movement is going to happen, ie bit peeling back, thats when it'd do it!lol

well gd job m8 and i would do it my self if they want £70 lol

[joeishmather]

place on ebay wanting £49 for them both done, and you just send them them and they supply everything and wrap them, think thats a better price imo.

[McLaren]

yea that is not bad price at all how much you pay for your wrap?

[joeishmather]

it was £20 for 50cm by 150cm
its not 3m tho, its something else, cant remember what its called, its apparently better...lol

kinda want to do my bonnet, but funds wont allow at the moment, and i dont want to look too chavy!lol

[Paddy]

I want to see someone do their whole car!

Looks well lad. Did you use the di-noc backed 3D stuff?

[joeishmather]

If you pay for the materials I'll wrap the car!!lol
it's hexis, apparently better than the 3m stuff, I have to say that after using both I'd go with this again over the 3m, the glue has very fine channels to allow air to get out, such a nice product to use!

i have seen a mini done in caebon fibre that looked good
