Wrapped my F31 328i
I wanted to get my car wrapped in vinyl and decided to try it myself.. It took me almost a week but i am quite happy with the result.
M performance splitter and kidneys are waiting in the post office and i will update with a real photoshoot after i got that bits on the car. Straight from delivery with crappy phone camera: Many hours of hard labour.. Results: What the bumper looks like after 2000 kilometers driven in the northen parts of sweden... |

I think it looks pretty good. I'm curious why you wanted to wrap it the same color? Just to give it a bit of a matte look?

Easier to wrap, i dont need to wrap the door sills for exaple. And the gaps between some panels will show the original car colour
I mainly wrapped tha car for paint protection. I really hate driving around with a new car just waiting for scratches made by clumsy peapole at supermarkets =) This will not protect from everyting, but at least some.. And costing me only 500$ exluding a lot of time, i feel that its money well spent . |

If you wanted paint protection why not just clear wrap?

Then the car would not be satin pearl white... That was a very nice bonus. I would not have spent the time just on a clear film.
