**** dint think it was that much !

Can probably get a mate to do it with crepe paper for £50, but if you want a proper job... ;)

 

My old BMW 6er was just shy of £3K, but the quality was immaculate and the wrap was flawless despite living outside and having a particularly bluff front end. Some wraps I've seen have been peeling in 6 months, which I would never be happy with.

My wrap was about 2.5k but absolutely immaculate black gold dust  3m wrap and can be safely/professionally  taken off within 5 years without damage to underlying paint. :)

In all seriousness as long as the wrap is removed carefully with a bit heat then I'm sure it would be fine, but I've seen 350Z paint come straight off after just removing a small piece of vinyl put on for a Le Mans trip (my own car) so I'd be very wary of ever removing it. Certainly I never intended the BMW one to ever come off.

Another question on wraps (cars booked in), until I can get my garage cleared out the car will be outside, as it is now, how do you look after a wrap ? Snowfoam, wax, polish ??? Any tips would help, thanks.

Snow foam and a regular wax is fine. Always use the TBM though as otherwise it’ll scratch horribly: Mine was immaculate for two years this way, then I had a buyer coming round last minute so gave it a very quick wash with a single bucket and there were score marks everywhere :( 

 

Never ever polish it. Ever. Don’t even put a compound bottle near it.
