Whats the opinion on these? Here is a chrome green wrapped Gallardo - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7p4LL4K6lk&fea...

I'm tempted to do it... just curious what others think.

Rubbish. They call it chrome, but it's just shiny like the wrap of your average Twix-bar is. Instant knob-thread material for me.

Great option if you're after the made-in-China-look though. Comes to live in combination with the beautiful LED-strips.

I suppose I should be ashamed of myself, but I like that a lot. A Gallardo isn't what you'd call a subtle car anyway, why not go the whole way?

That green chrome wrap makes it look like a real life matchbox car.

looks 100% better than the shiney plain chrome wrap.

Depends if done correctly!


Although not sure if a wrap or paint. Think Mclaren also do a similar colour.

If you can afford it and you are sure no damage will be done to the car in fitting or removal then why the hell not.

I was expecting this to be a thread resurection, the first post being from 2007 or so.

Old news/idea IMO.

Really does not suit that car. Looks a lot better on the Focus

I think silver chrome looks awful, but I rather like that green on the Gallardo and the red on the Evora above.

looks st..don't mind if on that Lotus though.

what happens if it's really bright/sunny and the light starts bouncing off the huge chrome wrap though??
