wow came out sick like 3 weeks ago I posted I was thinking about doing my car in a vinyl wrap matte white actually and got flamed for it.. Everyone said its Impossible to keep clean and it gets stained easily..

Can I ask where did you get the wrap? Also you didnt take any panels off just wrapped everything straight on the car? thats crazy im trying to think how you would do the trunk area..

Also if your car has dings and dents would you just fill it with bondo or whatever and vinyl right over it..

Machine I don't know about the wrap but my paint is extremely hard to keep clean, from what I heard vinyl wraps are very low maintenence. I think the word of matte white being hard to clean came from the stuff I been saying about it, I should have been more clear with it though since my car isn't a wrap, actual paint which is different, there is pores in the paint where dirt gets into and very hard to clean. Wraps are easy maintenence you should go for it

Wraps are very easy maintenance, no buffing required, just light hand polish from here to there, and if you get a stain that doesnt just wipe off with a wash, just use adhesive remover or alcohol! Super easy, but yes... it dirtys fast as it is a matte white and dirt does tend to stick to it! But atleast you wont really have swirls

Everything was wrapped on the car panel by panel, it can be very frusterating for some if your not patient!

No to the jams, if I wasgonna do them id paint um black or something sorta universal, but I wouldn't wrap them, it'd just be way easier and less time consuming to paint all jambs and doors

Easy maintenance sounds like a godsend right now with all the rain we've been getting. :[

Looking good though.

Good job on the wrapping, but i would get a replica nismo front and Stillen rear, it would make the car looks much much better.
