Matte White vinyl wrap on a civic. Rice or nice?
 
I've been looking into an EK for ages, I want white more than anything, but if I can't find a decent condition white one, I was hoping to wrap it with matte white vinyl. I get it/the labour for dirt cheap, maybe 1/4 the price of actually painting the car. But wanted to know how the general revscene population felt about a wrapped, lightly modded civic hatch....

If you want it white just paint it, it'll last longer.

But you should get it yellow :p with blk and yellow rims hahahaha

lol no moar yellow. I don't wanna spend as much money just to paint it as the car is actually worth, can't justify that. However since wrapping is dirt cheap thats why I'm considering it.

Ya I know what your saying man, I wanna wrap my car white but there's so many imperfections it'll be a waste, how much can you get a car wrapped for?

Btw I got a buddy that's selling his ek in red with b18 :)

I'm gonna wait and see the results of how it looks (quality). My GF's dad works for them, and they are doing his wifes car in Pink. I wanna see how it turns out before even asking if he can do friends cars.
