Wrap was holding up very well. I just knew there were joins even though I couldnt easily see them and eventually it got to me. Loved the colour though, so the paint matches the wrap.

        No, door sills, inside boot. Everything but the engine bay.

          How does the paint look around the window edges?

          Side door and front one wouldn't be affected but the rear side and rear windows seem like they would get in the way of painting the inside edges?

          If you don't look in the engine bay can you tell the car has had a change of colour? (ie, are there some tell tale signs of a paintjob)

          I had my front bar resprayed recently and the painter was telling me that changing the colour to white (my favourite colour) is quite cheap as it is easy to work with and requires no clear which has me considering spraying my car in white

          Perfect. All glass was removed prior to paint
          Side door and front one wouldn't be affected but the rear side and rear windows seem like they would get in the way of painting the inside edges?
          See above, but also, it is possible to lift the rubber and hold it up with something so paint goes under.
          If you don't look in the engine bay can you tell the car has had a change of colour? (ie, are there some tell tale signs of a paintjob)
          Not really, there is nowhere that is white except engine bay and they did a great job. Guards were removed for paint, so even the inside sills on those are blue. Unserside of bonnet is white, but is mostly covered with special foam mat. There is a very slight run on the back of the boot lid that I could get buffed out, but have never bothered as its not at all easy to see.
