Just want to share some pics of my car, turning from Black Sapphire to Frozen Black with a matte PPF. In person, it looks really nice.

Looks great, well done. Did they have to take any bits off to get it all done??

Sorry, I have no idea how they did it. I was out of town during the wrapping.

Nice. Very nice!
May I ask how much this costs for you?

Full body wrap + windows tinting + 5% tax comes to CAD $5877.90

Looks sharp!

2 things…..lol

1st….I see a white Tesla there, how’s your experience been between that and the M60?

2nd….what the hell is that under the red cover…!?

Looks mean as hell…..!

Thanks in advance.

BTW…. wrap looks cool!

1) That’s a Model Y, the i5 is way way way more comfortable, and the build quality is also way better. I like my i5 a lot more than the ModelY.

2) that’s C8 Corvette

Mac545 · 11-25-2023, 07:44 PM

That’s good to hear! 👍🏼

Aaaaaaand….very nice!!! ❤️

Ravenseal · 11-29-2023, 08:38 AM

That glowing grill, big yikes.

Rick3060 · 11-29-2023, 08:45 AM

Looks great man! How did you make that light in the grille? Perhaps I'm making that myself too😁

MParallel · 11-29-2023, 08:54 AM

Seeing the snow, I though the joke was to see a frozen BMW, not the actual paint.

Legendary_MylesF06 · 11-29-2023, 09:16 AM

Niiiiiiiiice…

GOLFFRR · 11-29-2023, 10:20 AM

BigEvan1923 · 11-29-2023, 11:39 AM

Congrats OP - I wanted to do this on my sapphire black X5 but couldn't rationalize the investment for a lease. Looks outstanding.

If you don't like Sport Pro, you can also order the illuminated kidney grille individually for $500.

cfm56d7b · 11-29-2023, 01:43 PM

Phenomenal outcome. Thanks for sharing!

Yea I do like the package, but I've got a f30 now so I don't think they got it for that car so yea

SupremeHustle · 11-29-2023, 02:49 PM

Looks good. Curious, how do you keep it clean in the winter?
