Spending $1300 to wrap everything but the hatch, doors, and rear-bumper is far from over-kill. I am not a fan of re-painting anything. Once it leaves the factory, I'm not going to be putting any more paint on it, and I'm going to do my damndest to keep any from coming off of it. I had my Z06 wrapped in all the "bad" areas, and plan on doing the same for the 370Z. However, my Z06 is white. I can BARELY see the lines of the bra. I'd rather do whole panels the next time I wrap, which is why I plan on spending a few hundred $ more this go-around and having every panel I am getting wrapped, FULLY wrapped. No lines.

I promise that a competent shop will charge you more than $1300 to re-paint rockers PROPERLY and PM them well, especially with your silver paint. Silver is a flat out BITCH to PM. Just changing the air-pressure will change the hue of it. Flat out nightmare. I'd rather not.
