^^ Yes. The sedans are just not nearly aggressive enough to look good in flat wrap. Some coupes can pull it off with the right body kit and wheels. But a stock sedan just looks bad. The massive decal on the window and led underglo definitely dont help the look at all either.

You were right, you do definitely treat it like a pos car. Maybe if you put a little more care into it, the final result would have been better.

To be perfectly honest. I think this smart car pulls off the flat grey and gloss black look much better than you did.

That's actually a good look for a Smart. Anyways. I'm not looking for an ego boost neither am I looking for opinions. Like I said in my previous post, I post these up just to share with the community. Clearly I could care less what the 3 or 4 people who live on this forum think. But for better or worse other members may see it and choose to do or not to do the same.

And the big sticker... It is there to advertise my wrap business as I drive around town. The loud flat wrap is on to attract attention to it. This is my demo car for 3eleven wraps which is why I'm on my 4th wrap now. So hush up haters and let the world see it

P.S. I still do love the color even if dude says I have no taste. I wrote this explanation so I don't have to say f u to him lol it's easy to just say nah that's not my thing. So be respectful and do that.

I wasn't aware you had your own wrap biz, it makes sense you would wrap your car to show off what you do I would have done the same and in this particular case the sticker is understandable. I guess we all have our opinions on how your car looks but at the end of the day if you like it that's all that matters AND if you did the job yourself than it came out great

Didnt realize it was your own side job. I understand why you are a bit defensive then. If you are trying to use your car to advertise your company, you might want to redo the wrap in something that is more appealing to the eyes of most people.

It might be just as ugly as your current wrap, but maybe a chrome or gold wrap to really bring attention to your car and company.

Not a fan, looks too flat like someone sprayed it with primer while waiting to save up for a full spray.

Driver front door does not match Driver side rear door. Different roll of vinyl?

What is with no grill? You need to have twin turbo to pull that off. Looks like you wrecked the car and can't afford a grill.

Much rice, my friend. Looks like a wrecked car that is a work in progress.

If that is the look you are going for, mission complete!

That chrome will get some attention.

But seriously, if you are trying to promote your own business, choose a color and look that other people WANT TO GET. Not sure that is what you have now, as nobody on here likes it, and we love G35s.

If you are going to win over customers with variety of tastes (Mustangs, Evos, SRTs, BMWs, etc, etc) try something that everyone likes, and wants you to do on their cars.

Good luck!

I don't think that it looks too bad. The color is just a little blah to me but to everyone's one. And here is another matte car that everyone will hate. I did it myself with some buddies and I still need to put the lip on and carbon side skirts and diffuser.

The wheels are still wet here so they look kinda odd. I like the 5 spoke staggered concave look though so I went with it. I dislike plenty of the popular rims that most people often go with,
