There are quite a few threads about Vinyl wrap on the forum but has anyone actually done a coupe ? If so could they post some pics and outline the pros and cons of their experience ? It would make an interesting thread.

I have seen one which was badly done. Bits hanging off etc
It has been mentioned here before. If I remember correctly the problem is the size width wise that the wrap comes in concerning the roof. Unlike other cars the Coupe does not have many shut lines to lend the wrap to finish. For instance, the roof and rear quarter run as one continuos area. Some sympathetic joins would have to be considered.
Could be the time for roof colour change?

Confirm, my coupe' has a "junction" on the roof.

Maybe with Plastidip you can achieve the same results, but with less money laugh

This one has been wrapped according to the seller. Maybe the stripe hides the join. CLICKY

I actually quite like that Green on that one and the interior dash strip and carbon centre looks good.

Nope. You can see a join down the corner edges of the front and rear bumpers, bonnet, on the 3/4 pannels by the slashs and on the c pillars.

As it happens, I got a spam from an energy drink company this morning offering three hundred dollars to have your car wrapped with their advert...

Dependent upon having sight of the artwork (and length of the contract), I’d probably agree to that.

Scam

That's a shame. Too good to be true
