Looking to buy used Murci next week (and would like to wrap it but struggling between 4 choices (assume lp640 or 6.2l with lp640 lights, and lp640 wheels in black or gun metal grey):

-Matt Gun Metal Grey similar to this:

-Gloss Gun Metal Grey sim to this:

-2 tone 'lower sides,lower front, and rear' in matt black (similar to the SV) with a gloss or matt grey top

-or...matt black all over like this

welcome your thoughts on what looks sexy, and equally nothing too polarising...

Was it Traxx that put up a few pics of the matte blue one recently? IMO, matte blacks are a bit 2007, but the blue one looked a bit out of the ordinary.

Why the need to wrap?

Lamborghini do some fairly nice colours from their paint shop..

If you a spending £120k plus why not search one out in a colour you love?

Matt black is very old hat IMO

Wrapping costs c.2K, Paint would cost double i'd imagine. So if I change my mind on colour, I can change it again 2 yrs down the line....

Nearer 3K for a non-matt decent wrap (depending on material), and 8K+ for a paint job.

The preference to wrap isn't price based, is for a temporary change. I like my cars to keep their original colour. This protects it and is removable.

I'm thinking about changing the clothes I'm wearing too in a similar manner. I could wear different colour trousers and tee shirts. Maybe they could be washed in the meantime.
