Good Deal Or Not For Wrap?

Basically i want to get my interior trim wrapped in piano black and get rid of the aluminium trim. and few other bits and wondered is it a good price which i got quoted for.

Interior trim wrap = £150
Light Smoke tint for head lights = £30
Front and rear window tints = £180
Front grill wrapped in black = £20 (he said usually £40) as i would be doing all this at once.

so just want to know is that a good price for what i want done? what do you guys think?

i am going down there later on this work to see his work because he is currently wrapping a E92 M3 in the GTS Orange and the interior trim piano black. so hopefully get some pictures of the work before i do mine.

worth to contact meshyo, he is doing a whole crap wrap for 750, just doing those item runs the bill up to £380!! do you trust that place?

Also , the aluminium trim is quite tricky. if you lots of big dents then a wrap will also show those dents!

Why? Charged me £160 for an E92 roof and £20 for a steering wheel. Not bad in my view...

A roof would be around £100 including decent quality vinyl in gloss black. £160 does sound a bit steep but if the job is good then it doesnt matter

Materials would be around £60 for a roof the size of an e92 so anything else is labour charges. Shouldn't take more than an hour really so bear that in mind too when working out how much they are paying themselves per hour on top of the material costs.

got a 330i, where you based?

i thought monsterwrap is over price slighty, i called up 3 wrap companies and monster wrap were the most expensive. also monster wrap dont tint front windows where as hampshire tints do to the legal limit.
