Not something you wouldn't be able to do yourself though...
I don't have the right equipment or materials myself, nor do I know what kind of primer they use for putting wrap foil on.
 
I first wanted gloss black but then I changed my mind and thought that black carbon would look alot nicer.
 
problem as well if u sand it, a temporary wrap comes more permenant as you couldnt just remove the wrap when bored, it would need a respray
 
Depends what color the primer is.. the roof needs some change anyway because I spilled some wax on it. (wax on plastic = no good)

Unless I treat it with Autoglym: vinyl & rubber care, you'll keep seeing it.
 
Really? thats a first.. I allways thought you couldn't remove it from plastic.

But still, I don't like the plastic look of the roof.

I know there's an option out there so the roof is gloss black (think it was for the limited edition).

If you know me, I don't like copycatting and want to create my own version so thats why I think black carbon will look nice(r).
 
Of course there's always a way. Having said that I managed to do it to mine the kther day and haven't bothered sorting it yet as I've not washed the car. I was being slightly too careless. Plus I want to spray the plastics black
 
Well they said they would call me and give me a price for the roof. I warned them that I don't want it to be too rediculous expensive and still reasonable.

If the price is too steep I'll skip the roof and ask for either the mirror caps or rear diffuser to be done (I like carbon but small details, too much starts to get 'wannabe')
 
Been talking with a friend yesterday about the wrapping and he warned me not to over-do my car.

He said the crome logo's and chrome shells give a nice finish to the car.

Instead he said it could look nice if you did a carbon wrap on the front lip/license plate holder and rear diffuser.

But I don't want to necessarily wrap something.. I'll give it some thoughts.
 
I canceled the wrapping for the time being.

Instead, I was finally able to order my coilovers.

If I'm lucky they're on the next weekend. KW had them in stock so should be delivered next mid-week somewhere.

He promised me he's willing to put them on as soon as they arrived because I've been waiting for that long. So hopefully by next Saturday!

& I don't need to pay for installation costs.. how's that for service :cool:
 
You can't complain with free fitting mate. Can't wait to see it once there on
 
Wurth Rubber Care will clean up the plastic on the roof and leave it with a mild sheen rather than some of the other treatments.
 
Given that you've taken to the Ring etc, thought you might like this which I found earlier.

looks sweet but the air vent to the back wheel is gona be quite expensive to make (also where is the door handle ?) , but that wing looks kewlz :D ,also that side skirt is nice and the fatter lip in the front should be possible to make looks nicely photoshopd :D
 
On the Wind forum, a German Wind owner fitted the full Elia tuning kit, including front DRL's at the nose, other backbox, 19" rims, lowering springs..

It looks insane but not going to pay 5000€ for it.
