Wrapping my Griff...
Discussion
Due to let downs, by TWO painter friends of ours, I've decided to go for a vinyl wrap!
Also, with my Son starting Uni on Monday, I'll have to 'Sponsor' him, until he gets a job...I now can't afford a £3k+ paint-job, so a grand for a wrap sounds brilliant, considering that the interior trim is still to come, and all the other 'little' extras, that soon add up...
My dilemma is; should I stay with tradition, or go with a Matte finish?
I will probably have it painted in a year or two, anyway...

Check out his website..the finish on the cars is superior than vinyl wrap, plus he's done plenty of TVRs
Is this the finish HCM above is talking about for c£1,000 ?If it is then I might pop in one day for a look at a few examples and a chat. The finishes look excellent in the videos and photos but would still want to see them in the flesh so to speak to be 100% sure it was a viable option.
On a linked not how easy is it to remove the covering if you ever wanted to go for a full re-spray in paint ?

He's in Essex, and my body is off the chassis...The wrappers are around the corner from me...it's a case of logistics - transport, time, etc., = No contest...Edited by hillclimbmanic on Saturday 1st October 17:07

It doesn't mention anything about the quality/standard of the work though? The fact that the proprietor is confident enough to use it on his own Sag speaks volumes, I would have thought Have a look at the Griff, half wrapped...Go to the site on my earlier post, and click on portfolio...

...now I have a problem with the interior...I planned for black and tan leather, and have already paid for the leather..!
Now, I don't think the combination, with the red and gold flip, will work...
Black is an obvious(but boring) choice...Has anyone seen a red and gold flip with a different interior Colour?
Or, any Suggestions? My trim guy has suggested Bentley Chocolate Brown...
