Default I Just got a custom Wrap put on my Challenger and love it!

I had a company by the name of Kings of Wraps do a custom wrap install on my Challenger, you guys ever hear of them?

I really love how it came out and want to show it off, it's a flat black matt finish. I think this is the new trend, what does everyone think?

Thanks! I paid around 3g's... it was cheaper then a paint job and will keep the paint looking like new, plus its not perminant.. I felt like it was a win, win..

I dont know... looks like you just spent 3G's to have your car look like its in black primer basically. And considering that most of the expense of getting the wrap is the material and labor cost, seems to me you could have gotten a bit more creative and done it in some design, like carbon fiber, or snakeskin or something completely unusual.

Having done this kind of work myself, I will say it looks to be a good job though. I am not saying that the job was overpriced, just that for 3G's you could have ended up with some bad *** wheels/tires and a couple of body items which would have made it more than equal an improvement.

I remember seeing a Subaru WRX at Wasabi that had a wicked wrap that looked like a cross between godzilla and a snake.

I wanted somthing simple.. I had the option to make a design and Kings of Wraps suggested maybe that I do somthing more creative... Thanks for the feedback though.

I was guessing by the non covered part of the hood that it was already gloss black... which further boggles the mind.

It looks good if that is what you want, but I really don't get it. I think the gloss black it was would be more of an eye catcher than what you have.
