Wrap or Respray ?

[Kruizer]

I Dan selling his 7 ?

[Joe]

worth asking him anyways

[hunty_sideways]

do wraps myself for a living and i just got my car re-sprayed think that tells ya enough

failures :
you cant power wash any part that is at end point
you cant polish out scratches
you cant stop it peeling cause once it fails it peels everywhere
stone chips = bumper repaired and re-wrapped
should be laminated if not wont last a month (weathering)
frost ruins the memory in the vinly causing it to lift
its a pain to get off and involves loads off glue remover which dulls paint having the car too be re-sprayed after wrap is removed..

just a few iv learnt in the last 3 years

Carbon wrap looks so tacky...not sure why anyone would want that?!

But yeh, why dont you drive the 7 at all?!

[Greg]

If you're just planning on selling the 7 then why waste money on paying for a wrap or full repsray? It's just the front bumper that needs touching up, is it?

If it was me I'd work out what car needs less money spent on it for it to be ready to sell, get that done asap, and sold on. No point in hanging about and spending money you don't have to.

Thanks Hunty, wrap = scrap

No interest in the car Peter, took 3yrs to build it, all it needs is one piece of intercooler piping, a map and vrt, so close but no love left for her...

Suppose Greg, want something cool to drive daily but this is tough rough for Reese so was planning on selling it to get a chaser or Laurel...

[Greg]

Haha, there's hardly enough room in it for one person with the Brides in it so don't know how you'd manage with a booster seat, Becky, and a heap of shopping coming back from Tesco.

Spray the bits that need doing in the same red, get it mapped, and sell it. The JZ86 will be the new love of your life and the 7 will be forgotten.

The 7 is for boys only LoL Me and Reese, he's mad for the 7

If I get rid of the mini and colt I'll be delighted...
