Question Matte white wrap

Hey guys I was thinking of wrapping my car to a matte white. I just wanted to think what you guys think? And does anyone know how much does this usually cost? I asked a shop that does this kinda of work, they quoted me for about 3K comes with a 3 year warranty. Right now my car is a OB. I want to do a K2 remix front, CF diffuser and then wrap it to matte white with maybe a matte black roof???

I would guess you could get it cheaper, but your quote above says a lot. I think you get what you pay for. You could get lucky and get a good job for less. I would be interested to see what it looks like if you get it done. If they guarantee no damage to the paint when/if it gets removed it's sure cheaper than a paint job, and if you don't like you might want to find out how much removal is.

For one when you paint a car it loses its value even faster, and 2 I just don't want to spend that much.

well true, if you paint ur car, it loses its originality and depreciates quickly. but ive been studyin these wraps for a few weeks and thinkin about wrapping my car too. it would seem cheaper just to order the wraps and wrap it yourself, which requires alottttttt of concentration and patience.... i think 3k is wayyyyyy too much.... the most you might spend on buyin the wrap is 1500 max probably
