Do you have the capabilities to print custom pictures on a wrap, ie: a full bonnet wrap with a pic of my choice?
Where are you located?
Are any of the above pics your work?
What is the vinyl product you are using?

Are you going to do gloss clear coats at any stage or just all matte?

will be doing gloss eventually, what color do you have in mind? and also why glossy, only asking because most ppl who decide to go vinyl is because they want a matte look :)...

If you gloss clear coat over the top of it it will give a more realistic look of CF and it will also make it last a lot longer ( it won't lift off after time in the weather ) .

If you could supply a rough quote as to how much it'd cost to wrap an entire FTO, that may be handy... ;)

Re: carbon fiber wrapping your FTO :P

ok so we have decided on some rough prices:

carbon fiber bonnet: $400
matte black: $350

whole car: $1500
FTo boot: $300
side mirrors: $80

ive had to put the prices up alittle bit guys as the supplier i get my vinyl from has put his prices up and the falling dollar aswell, it isnt that much of a difference

materials pretty expensive atm from the supplier we get it from, prices will drop once we get a cheaper supplier but were not fans of the chinese stuff :O..

Anything else you guys want prices on?

PS if you bring a customer to us when you get something done well make it chear, the more customers you bring us the cheaper it will be for you ;)

Any thoughts on prices would be very helpfull guys so let us know whats on your minds :)
Also guys remember the prices will vary depending on your body kit and condition of your car, any questions dont be afraid to ask.
