Anyone here ever Wrap a car instead of painting one?

Whether its a crazy odd job, or a simple color change. Ive seen some videos/photos online and I dont hate it. It doesnt seem to expensive, but i cant really find a place who does it to get an actual price quote, or know if anyone in Northern IL does it.

we wrap all the race cars, but that is different than a regular street car.


Jimmy owns a print company and they do wraps, im sure he could get you in the ball park or give you the name of a company up your way

Those are the homie hookup prices out here in Chicago.

Be prepared to spend at least 4k at a reputable shop out here.

Eh color changes go fast though. Not sure why everyone charges so much for them to be honest. I'd rather do color changes than printed wraps.
