Help me decide if I should wrap my roof gloss black

lsturbointeg · 06-28-2015, 04:56 AM

I guess "you get whatcha pay for" is what comes to mind. Sure...I see great prices on eBay but all from China or Taiwan!

So I'll pay the extra and order from our site sponsors

Lol but my doubt is that even those us site get it from China haha.....Then no point paying for more for the same item. I tried to see if any manufacture here make that, but none. So i really think it's from China or Taiwan too

Right! But u get a better chance of being able to return something if it doesn't fit.

Wrap it. When you dont like it anymore, take it off like me

Absolutely!!! 3M has this new carbon fiber 4D or 5D wrap that is gloss and look almost like the M3/4 roofs.

Does that only look good on AW or do u think my Jet Black can pull it off? I plan on getting carbon fiber components and have the Hood wrapped carbon fiber but I got a 50/50 response from the guys here So...Maybe just the roof?

What kind of splitters are those? Looks very nice.

jasonle89 · 07-02-2015, 07:30 PM

i think the lip is 3d and the black splitter also 3d under splitter. Those 2 two parts attached together to get that look

So they're the real 3DDesign parts? I'm affraid if I get something like that it'll scrape too easily.

jasonle89 · 07-03-2015, 09:45 AM

Lol can't avoid that bro. That's the price to pay when lower, but u get an awesome look

Its aftermarket, but fitment is almost 99%.. i can't justify spending $1000+ on a front lip..
