Looks amazing! Just out of curiosity, how much did wrapping the whole car in clear coat cost?

I'd assume as much as any other wrap $3-4k, maybe more because it had to resist color change and such

Huck

Oh wow, I was under the impression that a decent wrap was somewhere between $1500-$2000. Whoever had my car before me paid about $600 to have the front bumper, 1/3 of the hood, and the front quarter panels done without the edges wrapped.
