Black becomes white a C6 wrapped in vynal (full body)
After some slight prodding my bro in law convinced me to post some pics here.
My 2006 C6 was black I was sick of all the crap that goes with black so I had it wrapped in white vynal at Knightworks in Newmarket. Its not noticeable unless you are an **** paint guy and know depth etc... White doesn't have much depth from the factory anyways haha.
very nice!!!! whats the lifespan on the wrap? approx cost?
1200 bucks to do the whole car, they say its 10 year. I would imagine a car that sits all winter and is garage kept 90% of the time should last a little longer.
Does it have to go over a perfect body? What about stone chips etc, how does it cover them. If it starts to peel do they fix it? Is 10 year the warranty, if not, how long? looks good.

No minor imperfections are not noticeable, when we peeled the logo,s the pin holes in the body were not noticeable though the vynal.
We have been joking calling this the Michael Jackson edition.
I have seen this done on a BMW E92 that went from the silver colour from the factory to a flat black finish. The guy paid more then $1200 so you got a good deal on yours.
Your original paint seemed pretty flawless from the pics.
I've seen a black go to flat black on a C5 vert. Another CFCE forum member had it done a couple of years ago. I think it was done at the same place too. Except for the large C5 hood, there were no seams anywhere. The hood had to be done in 2 pieces.
It looks like they did a good job on your white vette. In the pics, it doesn't even look like a wrap. I imagine filling in the "corvette" would have been the hardest part for them to do. Might have looked good if they just left the fillings black so it shows a black "corvette" on the white wrap.
Congrats!

I have been considering doing a wrap on my C-pillar - or whatever it's called - to Black.
Torch red car with dark tinted windows, dark tinted roof panel - do that back bar in black as well - should look sharp. Everything above the doors will be Black.
