wow newbie account indeed.... think a little bit about things before you post a response

you don't think a guy who owns an R8 can afford 10 g's for a paintjob ?

The reason he probably went vinyl, hell.. the reason almost ALL exotic car owners go with vinyl wrap is to protect the value of the car since for some stupid reason if a car is fully repainted it's "supposed" to lose a bit of market value when it gets resold..

second... maybe a bit easier for you to understand, the vinyl wrap protects the car's stock paint from most nicks and chips which will definitely come in handy when

A: either the lease is up
or
B: selling the car


oh and I almost forgot, another important reason would be that the car might be a lease, so it's done for return purposes.

in any case..... it's highly likely YOU just got owned, as opposed to the dude rolling around in a batmobile R8 around town..

LOL, now you got OWNED.

[G-spec]

as for the guys wondering how vinyl wrapping is done....

as you can see in the pics, you need wrap and you need a blowdryer... or if you're good at not melting shit, then heatgun will work

Real rich people don't care about resell value, they don't sell their own cars ! they get their secretary to sell it. "Real Rich" do what they want, care less about outcomes. That's real rich !

[LsquareD]

soooo secks!!

[s2k_604]

owner's my friend, driven it b4, pure sex...

[Euro7r]

Looks dope.

[TRDood]

does that mean there are 3 R8 owners in UBC?

1. this one
2. Michael Hoe's daughter
3. some random chinese guy, saw it @ the pay parking next to Irving

[rageguy]

this guy parks at ubc rosegarden almost every day. it's the most flat parking lot, so he can enter it without any scrapes. see his car there all the time. and yes, it's a taiwanese guy, roughly year 2 to 3.

[unit]

i dont know if this is possible, but matte/flat black got played out. not interesting anymore

[twitchyzero]

looks like a mini-reventon..droolz

[Gtrr33]

i like the paint job not the car

[cococly]

does that mean there are 3 R8 owners in UBC?

wouldn't this car be R8 #2 or #3 as u mentioned but just went thru that paintjob and mods?? :thumbsup:

[icanpolish]

If I had one of those, I'd be super paranoid about door dings!

#2 sold his daughter's R8 already

[winks]

how much would doing vinyl cost?

[ToyotaPowah]

You're an idiot. You are talking about rich people that have not worked for their money (ie. inheritance). A wealthy person that has worked for their money would definitely be concerned about "outcomes."

On topic: Matte black looks so damn good on that R8. Looking forward to seeing it up close at the auto show.

[1exotic]

#2 sold his daughter's R8 already

Sold it because he probably bought her a LP640 i bet.

[alex.w *//]

^ or maybe there bankrupt?

[BEEB]

no, i heard they said the Porsche turbo drives better !

yeah, you might be an even bigger idiot. Wealthy person buying an R8 and having it wrapped in vinyl ? Please... So, i really don't know if mommy and daddy are considered wealthy or rich?

[Vansterdam]

pure sex

[CallTransOpt]

Woah the black one is nice, carbon fiber wrap reminds me of the stuff they use on buses.

[AsBannedAsItGets]

sick!

[yvrnycracer]

Looks so good... saw this car DT before it was wrapped... N and all...

Am very curious on the price of a wrap...

and Klassen wheels... BALLER!

[Harvey Specter]

Someone said it's around $2000-$3000 for a wrap but no idea who does it locally or even if that price is real.

[Shun Izaki]

if it's that cheap, everyone should do it.

I'd be a pedobear Dc5 :P

[KinseySS]

WANT!

[Mancini]

Hot!

[kumbo1]

3 grand for a wrap?

[Harvey Specter]

You do know that owners of exotics in the Middle East and Europe have been wrapping cars like LP640's, F599's, F430's and etc... for the last couple of years right?

[Amuse]

So wrap is removable? If so, then the original paint will still be shiny?

[kumbo1]

You will probably a 3 stage wax/cut polish due to the adhesive.

[Not really racist!]

orgasm to my eyes..

fuck

sorry I don't know anything about middle east cause I don't get out of my house that far, but I'm limited to North America. Last time I attended the revscene summer meet at #6 road silvercity and seen no exotic with vinyl wrap and I felt dumb attending with a Ferrari.

[MDMA]

saw that r8 today on buswell in richmond, all i can say is puer sexx!!!!!!!!!

[ssonss1]

sr quoted 5-6k:rolleyes:

sr quoted 5-6k:rolleyes:

how much does AAA charge :P

[Harvey Specter]

sr quoted 5-6k:rolleyes:

Interesting...I'm going to see if I can find some information on some local shop that was claiming to do it for $3000.

This guy just doesn't get it, lol.

[Drift_Monkey]

I spot it driving across from me on williams & no4 road. looks great.:thumbsup:

spotted this beautifully crafted vehicle parked beside me at Well Tea, near alexandra road this afternoon. I was in the gray subaru :)

I wanted to snap a few photos of the car, but didn't want to intrude your privacy ;)

ballin .

[Leung_Dog]

just wondering for insurance purposes if my car was like white and i wrapped it flat black would i have to change my insurance or how would that work??

[ShyGuy]

FYI, wrapping a white car in black vinyl doesn't work well...the vinyl they use is so thin that you'll still see the white base of the car underneath the vinyl. It's best to use a black car.

[TracerFX]

sr quoted 5-6k:rolleyes:

haha, 5-6k = think of it as getting a whole new color scheme + Full on 3M type vinyl prot on your car...not too pricey no?

just wondering for insurance purposes if my car was like white and i wrapped it flat black would i have to change my insurance or how would that work??

can anyone answer this?
how would it be if you were stopped by cops and ur icbc papers says your car is yellow (for example) when it's clearly black in color in front of the cop's eyes?

speaking of, reminds me of the TV show viper/the new knight rider when it changes colors when being pursued, just unwrap your vinyl...and voila! getaway GTA style

note to self: research on rotating license plates..

[Sp3cial_K]

saw this car!
looks so hot.

plus he checked out my car as we were driving past each other =)

[Synaptik]

i saw this car outside richmond sushi last friday. fucking beautiful.

[nonyo]

Saw it too on the #2 Road bridge. Thought it was the batmobile at first. Didn't realize the latest fad was wrapping your car in vinyl.

[threezero]

anybody know if vinyl can be done glossy? i've only matte color vinyl jobs

[G-spec]

wow, 5 to 6 k !! shit, not even my lambo satin white paintjob cost that much !

Jah is right, this thing would be acceptable if it was kept under 3 grand.

[ZordosZZ]

There are a lot of different colors of wrapping vinyls. A lot of colors do come in a glossy finish, and depending what kind of laminate shops that can add to the glossy finish.
