Default My wrapped s2k :)

Hi!

Just wanna share my S with you all.

Going to start with a pic how she looked when I bought her last summer:


Next step was better rims, a set of coilovers and an OEM-wing:


And a colorchange made it better! The wing is also wrapped matte-black


Made a photoshoot on it yesterday:








Thats it!
I have wrapped the car all by myself with 3M's 1080-G227 Gloss blue metallic (full wrap, you cannot se any of the original color except in the engine bay.)

Hope you liked it

Thanks guys! The wheels are Buddyclub P1-racing (I think these are the last P1-model that were made with straight spokes. The newer ones have spokes that bends inward)
K1 is very much the same rim, but mine has "P1 racing" stickers on them...

The specs are 17x8 +42 225/45 at front and 17x9 +47 255/40 at the rear!
I have relocated tabs and rolled fenders at the rear, and I have moved the fender liner over the fender and pressed the fender upwards with my bare hands at the front

Great color.
So, how long does the "wrapping" last? Is there upkeep for it?

The vinyl is expected to last like 8 years depending on how much mother nature is tearing on it. It is just like a paint job! I just wax it and wash it just like it was painted. The best is that I'm saving my original paint! If i get tired on it, then I just need to add some heat and rip it off.
But I'm crazy enough planning on changing color next year. I think I'll go for a color with some candy-effect in it then, but for now I'm very happy with the color I stuck with. It gets bright blue in the sun, and kinda dark blue in low light. It shifts to darker/brighter depending on the angle you are looking from.
