Who's gonna wrap?
Cuz I can tell ya, I wanted VO very badly, and was willing to pay for custom paint from the factory. Alas, it's not an option.
I'm going Avery Gold Orange Pearl. Very VO-ish. Love it: |

I probably will at some point. Did matte grey on my last M3, I'm thinking maybe satin white or something.

Take care of it and it'll easily last 5+ years, depending on the type of wrap and the conditions you live in. Matte wears down quicker. Where I am we have no worries of snow. I can imagine scraping ice and snow off could easily tear through the vinyl. But we deal with a damn strong sun, which can fade it quicker.

So what does taking care of it entail? Just wash regular wash and wax as if it were paint? |

Yeah regular wash is a must with vinyl. There are some things that kill it, like bird droppings. They'll leave marks on the vinyl quickly if you don't clean it up fast. Even more so on matte wraps.

Today I received specifications for a partial XPel Ultimate treatment.
Full hood, headlamps and mirrors, front bumper, rocker panel : 2700€ - 3000$ Isn't that extremely expensive? |
