Footballists in Manchester have started doing this again.

It started off with a chrome Maclaren SLR, now it's matt finish on everything.

One MUFC player has a Maclaren SLS wrapped matt black. It's already peeling and makes the car look chav. Another one had its side scratched off by a Bentley reversing into it in the team carpark. They don't look after those cars.

I suppose it's a way of protecting your paint on a new car.

Someone on another forum had his Thundercat wrapping in matt black. Never seen it in the flesh but it looks good in the pics.

He's just decided to go back to normal and it all seems good after he peeled it off. Will try to find a picture

Someone I know had it done and then had it redone as it was bubbled and started peeling. The tank especially wasn't great even when redone it it difficult to do properly.

Have seen some work by this guy, impressive, you can always strip back to original unless you have used it to "cover up", 5 yr fade warrenty, Rough quote to Carbon Wrap a fuel tank £80 + motifs Triumph motif looks very good in gold carbon, watch this space.
