Interested in getting my C7 wrapped once I get one, would actually save me money and protect my car in the long run (factoring in the $995 Laguna Blue paint, $2,000 for the full front Xpel, and the new car detail w/ Cquartz for $885). I got quoted $2,800 for a full wrap with door jambs and everything, plus it would definitely stand out from the rest of the red/white ones I've been seeing around recently.

Opinions?

$2800 for a full warp sounds about right. I found this one:

Sounds really good but just remember it can be damaged, too, by debris. Find out what the piece replacement might cost in the event that does happen so you know in advance. I'm reading that even Xpel (for that matter, any PPF) can be damaged and I know 3M can.

That is a great price I think. I was quoted nearly twice that locally when I asked after I saw this pic of the blue chrome. I wouldn't permanently want it, but I would rock this for a summer or two! haha

There's a local C7 here in Phoenix that has the metallic blue wrap, and it looks great !!!

Excellent choice for wrap vs the chrome as it won't show a scratches like the chrome based wraps !

Shop around on price, because $2800 a tad high... It cost about $500 for the material , so you can see rest is labor .. Haggle Haggle that price to at least $2000

Considering the shop I contacted removes all of the pieces and tucks everything including door jambs I think $2800 is fair especially for 3-4 days of work. But I will ask them and see if they can come down a bit.

Any chance you could locate some pics?

Subscribing for the "after wrap" photos.

Might be a while, 2ish years, haha. I'm sure someone else will do it way before I do.

THe shop owner is on this board .....Joe@CPR is his screen name. Maybe he'll chime in.

You talking about the C5?

I love the color, but the metallic is just too much for me. I think Laguna Blue out of the factory stands out enough on it's own.

But for those who like it, go for it!

Beach, what color are you considering?

^ ... That looks awful.

I'd rather have the good looking glossy Laguna Blue finish... LB is a really good looking color.

Also, be careful who does a wrap if you get one... There have been horror stories posted where installers have damaged clear coats with blade cuts where they trim the edges.

I saw a car last weekend at the local Corvette show that was fully wrapped the rust color on the hood.
