The wrap is done by www.skinzwraps.com and I got them to quote me a job on my Z06 and it was around $3500 for a regular job. I was thinking of wrapping mine white..

If it is supercharged it is an 06 or older, definitely not an 08.
Unfortunately, Paxton's don't do a whole lot for gen III's, except look good on dynos. There are plenty of 650-700rwhp Gen III's here and all they can do is run side by side against Z06's with intake/tune...an h/c Z06 would pull from them. Weight and gearing are a b7tch.
Sad, but true.
There is always someone faster though...always.

Fast and very fast
In my opinion, it doesn't matter who is faster......there is always going to someone out there who is faster. We all have fast cars, some a little faster. Both cars are awesome

As a data point, my '03 Gen-III Viper ran 134 MPH in the 1/4 with just a intercooled Paxton and 3.33 rear gears. Stock exhaust, stock cats, etc etc. At the time, a S/C gen III was a really hot package.
That said, it wasn't discernibly faster than my new ZR1, and the ZR has much better midrange torque (and brakes, and handling, and interior, and ...). What a difference 6 years can make!

Not to mention with the higher HP mods overwhelming traction and causing the owner to douchebag himself right into a wall or a tree, now that's a cool feeling. There is always someone faster. Heck on the street, you can have a slower car driven at WOT appear faster than other truly faster cars driven more conservatively. Plus, the idea of someone in car #2 hitting and killing someone and the attorneys come after you for provoking him and convicting you for invol. manslaughter or related charge.
