Specs and price for the wheels?

How are the tires?

I need more of a drop before I can run anything wider though.

My wheel fund = wedding ring fund... :-(

a good friend that i used to race with does that all day every day.

I talked to him about wrapping my car, not exactly cheap to do it. Paint is cheaper.

I don't know about that...

Wrapping a car in a single color, is about $1500. If you print on it with designs and other stuff the price goes up.

Painting a car the right way would be $4-5k to do the outside and door jams.

My roommate used to wrap cars and he can get all of the stuff I need to do it but I don't think its worth it.

I know i can get enough 3M 1080 wrap to do the whole car one color for around $560.

The guy i know just does the labor and no real discounts, what he told me when i was asking said it would be about $3k-$3.5k for the company he works for to do it. I know material is less than $1k. It always crossed my mind to do a flat dark graphite or flat black.

^^^

We are going to wrap our race car (when it gets finished) and all of the material to wrap it including print was around $1500. This is also including the perforated window covers.

lazer_Z · 04-12-2011, 01:12 PM

then labor to wrap... the price he gave me was material and labor. so about 1500 for materials and prob another 1500 to wrap?

i wouldnt imagine the majority of it being all that hard to do, but there would be some tricky spots.

KaienZ34 · 04-12-2011, 01:16 PM

So should i check into it? That price was a ballpark on wrap only. No other supplies.

TypeOne · 04-12-2011, 02:34 PM

I'm just thinkin out loud Francis...

If I was serious about it I would get my roommate Tim to do it for me. He knows all of the people and has done many cars before.
