    I do not like it, but I am not overly concerned some people do that.

    Anyone can do as he pleases, we have seen the F's in gold, driving in London …

    The problems occur when the wrap is taken off …..

    I have seen big blisters on fairly new cars here wit oem paint that also came off with the wrap …

    Heavy discussions were there but the owner payed for complete paintjob himself ….

    Interesting that the calipers seem to match the same color.

    Mmmm, I agree it doesn’t look half bad, but would be more inclined to do it to a Lambo than a Ferrari. I’d have done the roof the same color in any event.

    Sept for the pink wheel caps, I like it. Plus its just a wrap so its not permanently damaging the car. We've got plenty of Red and Yellow cars, why not blue?

    Beware: Wraps can be a royal PIA to remove. And as been mentioned, paint damage is a real possibility.

    My car had some carbon fiber wrapped exterior parts. I made the dealer remove them before purchase. Nice razor cut lines in the paint where the Bozo trimmed the wrap. They were not noticeable when the wrap was in place.

    As for the blue wrap the OP proposed. Not my taste. I like different but classy and understated.

    But I would love this color on my car! Not understated but classy to me.

    That's not an actual wrap. They just turned the car blue in photoshop. This is why everything yellow in the image became blue or a shade of blue. Calipers, wheel locks, flowers on the porch, the house itself lol

    I think the original could be red.

    My GT3 (for sale) is wrapped and the my 458 has stealth clear over it. Makes life a lot easier actually for cleaning and it protects it. I'm happy Image Unavailable, Please Login
