Default Need your opinions on what vinyl wrap color!!!

As you can see from my previous thread, my car was severely vandalized. To make the most of the situation I'm having the car wrapped rather then repainted. Car is pearl white so in order to keep the color consistent through car I'm going to do one of the following colors. Im liking the copper color but i think i could get sick of looking at it. Please help me out, dunno what to do!

For visual assistance, the car will be slammed on 20x10.5 gunmetal CV3s.

I haven't looked at your other thread to see if the ins was going just take care of the damaged paint with a check to have it fixed so I'm flying blind here

But if thats the case? Have them repaint it so it's like it was before, And if you want to wrap it?

Go for it since it's not permanent, And once you get over the wrapping you can have it removed to reveal a NOT so damaged paint job

This will also help in the resale if you decide to sell her down the road.

Thats just my opinion though.

The Copper looks great though

If your car gets keyed again (3rd time based on other thread? not sure) would your insurance company pay for a new wrap since that's what it looks like you're using the payout on?

I think that's been my general assumption since the other thread. I assume people are getting screwed somehow.

Looks like multiple times. Maybe multiple people? Cuz not first time OPs been keyed with the same car.

The first thing that annoyed me was the attitude on the other thread. It was like "I'm a prick, I got keyed, can you all pay for it with a fundraiser?"

And again here, potentially someone down stream will get screwed by this decision.

All I want to know now is if all our insurance premiums get smoothed out to cover this pseudo-fraud (half joking but only half)?

OP if you're not doing this on insurance dime then ignore every word. And, go camo!
