The greatest thing about wraps is all the fancy shadows and highlighting is all done in the software and doesn't cost nearly as much as if someone was doing it with an airbrush!!

Nice job!
Yeah I would imagine it would cost at least 30k to duplicate in paint what these guys did for me with vinyl.

Wow, it looks great. Did they put the center stripe on the deck as well? Any concerns with walking on it?

looks great. i was gonna get my boat wrapped but they wanted 7000 to wrap a 28 ft boat. ended up spraying it all red instead. graphics make you boat look like its doing 100mph just sitting there.

The only thing I dont like about it is if you run a rope against it to tie up with someone etc...it has pulled the lamination off of the graphic but very small area.

no I walk on it all the time. When this guy wraps a car he tells all of his customers to go ahead and go through the carwash it can handle it so walking on it is nothing

Is the whole topped wrapped, or just the strip?
Looks great!

Look great. From the pictures I have seen I think they all look awesome. I still want to see one in person.

looks great. for the guys that are worried about up close looks, I'll phrase it like this. I own one of the largest clear bra companies in the industry. The standard answer follows, when you are looking at a wrap or a clear bra, you are always going to notice small things from the installation that you wont see on paint. It is simply because you are applying a cover over the paint, similar to gift wrapping a basketball, the reason paint is near perfect and more expensive is because you are adding to the surface then sanding and clearing to reflect perfection. wraps and clear bras are put on to achieve a desired result, for wraps a change at 1/3 to 1/2 the cost of paint, for clear bras it is to protect the paint.. the only fair comparison for a wrap to paint is you will like either one based on your budget. hope this helps
