That looks like the one guy that wrapped his black vette in white... could be wrong though.

Might as well post the real car. The GMPP Z06X.




I initially conceived to do that scheme when I saw the Z06x at SEMA yrs back. I'm likely going in a slightly different direction now though. My car has the same wrap though, 3m Satin white pearl.

RC000E, I love the way your wrap turned out!

I have a thing for pearl white, so I wanted a few more pictures to add to my collection!

I could do without the Z0X emblems and Z06 air ducts on a coupe...

Well, what youre seeing is the classic case of, "I want all the vettes I dont own". Here we see Grand Sport stripes, with z06 brake ducts, z06x badges, with a zr1 style rear spoiler...on an automatic coupe...

Car is going under the knife this winter...

I got foam, chavant clay, 67ft of 12k x12k twill weave carbon, lots of resin and a slew of other related things at my shop.

It will still be satin white pearl in the end though...one of the best things i've done to the car.

How much was the wrap? After seeing yours, I am thinking I could care less about the color of the C5 I get and go this route. That looks amazing.

I just talked to a friend of mine who does Graphics he said 3M wraps around around 2K.

It looks like the cost of materials is about $200. Some beer and some friends and an afternoon, looks doable. Might look at the 3M Gray Aluminum Matte.

hahaha...not...

I STRATEGICALLY measured mine to get maximum use of material with minimal waste...plus I didn't do my rear bumper and I did my vette with 45ft. I also have experience doing it, therefore I didn't have any "do-overs". Cheapest place online for 45 ft is avs via ebay...they even beat my wholesale price through a sign shop I'm partnered in. My cost was 365.00 plus cost of squeegies, razors and knifeless tape.
