Wrap or re-paint?

chesta · 07-03-2019, 08:24 PM

Looking for your thoughts on changing the colour of my alpine white f30.

wrap vs paint?

Looking at either the beautiful snapper rocks blue, or the bottle green used on Alpina cars.

Has anyone on the forum done a repaint? Any issues?
Is wrapping just the easiest way to go?
Any recommendations in the GTA?

Thanks!

What condition is your paint currently in?

In my opinion if your paint is in great shape I would definitely leave it alone and go with a wrap. Having a wrap you can always remove it if you change your mind later down the line or if you ever get sick of the color just wrap it with a new color. The OEM paint plays a huge part in resale value so I would definitely keep that in mind.
