Model Y - wrap rec's & cost

[punkwax]

If it’s for the boss then buck up, pony boy. Explain the cost involved for a proper job done now to avoid future scrutiny or you’ll be miserable later.

I haven’t seen anyone do plastic dip recently. Is that still popular or did it go out of style with the 2010s !?

I think it's still popular down in the states.

Donut did a video a few years ago where they said that as long as it's done well, a plastidip can look good at a fraction of the price.

I think it might make sense if you're not sure what colour you want yet because you can try a couple and then get a more permanent wrap down the road.

Plastidipping is also probably much easier to DIY than a wrap, even if it's an ass job.

I think drip is hard to do evenly, like the conditions have to be perfect and some bottles are defective and spray chunks out. Like it's really hard to do evenly without seeing the horizonal or vertical spray patterns.

[Hehe]

I think the price of wrap is getting out of mind.

I get it if one wants to change the color or it's some super exotic where original paint quality is highly valued. But some of the wraps nowadays are approaching repainting-the-car territory.

My question is... why the fuck not just drive the exterior to shit and repaint it by the time it's beyond bearable?

When I got my Plaid, I asked around for a PPF wrap work, but the numbers are crazy. And considering the fact that I don't think I'd recoup that money when I sell the car down the road, why bother?

I'd just keep on washing and waxing my car to make it look good but no thanks to wraps.

I think these guys are the OG dip guys. They have a ton of video's spraying cars.

bro you dont even wash your car. of course you dont see any value in this crap. you treat your car like the tool its designed to be. not some garage queen retard like a ferrari

Every time I wash my car, I see a new fucking chip and die a little inside.

Even if it's an econobox, I should've just got PPF on the front to begin with.
