Does anyone do wrapping in the DFW?

AustynZ · 07-26-2013, 01:46 PM

I just got my first 370z, and I am looking to get the fangs and rear diffuser wrapped in black. Anyone else have this done and have pictures of it? I am new to posting in forums, so sorry for any thing I did wrong.

When my car gets back from the cage builder, I plan on plasti-dipping mine. You could do the same?

What part of Arlington are you in?

I would recommend going to google and searching "the370z plastidip fangs" or "the370z plastidip rear diffuser" etc... There are a ton of FANTASTIC looking dip jobs for under $10.

Much more affordable then a wrap. And if and when it chips, youll be able to easily spray over and repair.

I am in South Arlington, near Mansfield. I have done lots of research on plastidip, I'm just skeptical of how long it lasts, and being able to do a nice looking job myself.

It lasts a loooooong time if your car is clean when applying. And if you do several coats
And honestly. If it doesn't look good, take it off, but honestly... It's REALLY easy, maybe try doing emblems first?

So I think I've seen you out and about.

You probably would never have seen my car, since I haven't street driven it much since I moved down here a year ago.

I have a can of plasti dip, if you wanna get together and give it a try, shoot me a PM or whatever.. I live off Harris between Matlock and Silo.

Thanks for the reply. I did a google search, and only came up with Domestic Shops. Nothing for imports. I appreciate it!! I would like to have my car worked on by import specialist.
