Vinyl Wrap Or Repaint?

[Guest donaldthomps]

Hi, I want to change the wheel arch and nose cone colour on my superspec 05 - going from blue to lotus yellow I think.

 

What would be the way to go, Vinyl Wrap or Respray?

 

Any got any photos of work done in vinyl wrap you could share?

 

Thanks, Donald

For me it would be paint, simply because I can and I make a mess with vinyl.

don't think you can do the nose cone with out joins or over stretching the material, there will be at least one join at the middle under side.

down side of yellow is its not 100% opaque and will be tinted by the strong blue especially when stretched. some wrap vinyls have a gray glue to help eliminate this, when we have a spare nose cone may give it a go.

also has to be very top end vinyl as else it will pull at the edges very quickly thats if you got to conform in the first place.

Thanks for that, I'm going for a paint job now - will post some pictures once it's done!
