Remember to keep the orientation of the vinyl the same for the entire car.

If you cut out a small square and place it on the rest of the roll, you can see that it changes appearance every time you turn it 90 degrees, due to the nature of the metal flakes.

£550 is decent really. Goes nice with the black chequer plate. If you hadn't already done the back door I'd be tempted to wrap the roof black and leave the rest of it green.

Those wheels look ace!

Why have you gone for a wrap without air channels? Surely it's not going to work as well now. Did you go round the door frame in 1 piece? Looks like you've patched it up but that may just be the design of the door.

Colour is perfect.

You got a IR heat sensor as you'll find you need to heat the vinyl to a set temp for it to do its final stick.

Suppose with a Landy it should be ok. Can't wait for you to get it done, will look perfect with those wheels.

You raising it?

I'm liking the green and black, but grey will look better.

What are you going to do with the roof? wrap it grey?

Wrap looks great, wheels look good and sound like a bargain. As others have said, gloss black roof will suit it.

Wheels look awesome, completely tranformed it. Gloss black roof and the wrap finished and it'll look spot on!
