Like it a lot. Not better than BRM in my humble opinion but very nice and something different.

This looks very much like the original C4 era Black Rose.

Local wrap shop quoted me 2500 to wrap the whole car in the 3m color
Of my choice. I was just being inquisitive when asking as he was wrapping my roof halo and stinger stripe.

Perhaps the stock colors don't do it for the buyer?

If you are not satisfied with the stock colors, why not have it repainted if you have the cash to burn?

Unless you are wrapping the inside of the doors, sills, under the hood etc. It must look pretty wonky when you open a door.
