glrnet Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Ok, under a bit of pressure, scraped my splitter at the weekend and need to get ti sorted by Sunday for Super Car Siege. I've already checked with Boss Dog and Blue Lizard andthey are fully booked until next week so I fired some emails off and had a reply today from Surrey Vinyl Wraps based in Chessington, they have some reviews knocking around that aren't brilliant and I'm a bit dubious. I had made my mind up until they rang me a couple of hours ago to mask up the front of the car and respray it as temp fix tomorrow. Wrapping it is an easier less time consuming exercise though. Anyone had dealings with them or know anybody who has? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian@TORQEN Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 You'll be alright with the bumper as it is, just shows the car is being used properly. Wait and do it properly after the show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AliveBoy Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 They're really good, do a lot of prestige stuff, but they aren't cheap by any means. If the job is perfect I guess price is irrelevant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glrnet Posted May 13, 2015 Author Share Posted May 13, 2015 Well, I spoke to Robbie at Valet Magic and unlike some companies kept his promise to ring me back (1820) and unfortunately he only had brushed aluminium available given the short time window I have so had to decline. On the basis of his willingness to help I would certainly speak to him again in future. The car is in the garage masked, primed and one coat of top coat, fingers crossed.

Ricey Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 That poor TTRS! Wrapping is such a hard skill. I do a bit but I make sure I'm well and truly in my depth! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Payco Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 (edited) Graham. Zippypooz (Steve) on here would have sorted you out. He has his own wrapping company and his work is exceptional. Ask Bulletmagnet for a reference. Hope you get it sorted in time. Martin Edited May 13, 2015 by Payco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glrnet Posted May 13, 2015 Author Share Posted May 13, 2015 All done today mate, nothing some rattle cans and a little bit of patience can't cure. Forgot about Zippy, I'll give him a shout after the weekend and he can cove up my temp paint job On a further note, as Valet Magic have been metioned here, i did a a bit of research today whilst waiting for paint to dry and found these issues, there are obvioulsy always 2 sides to every story but thought it right that you guys should know in case anyone is thinking about using them. They might well be fine now but just in case:- http://www.edition38.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=487447 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
