Wrapping the LS430....!
Wrapping the LS430....!
12-09-2018, 05:30 AM
So I'm thinking about getting the behemoth wrapped. Question is, what colour?
- Matte black, for the whole 'VIP' look with a bit of a twist
- Chrome, for the OMFG MY EYES look. But just to be a bit different.
- Matte grey, for the Halfords Primer look.
- Some sort of colourshift, which may look weird on such a big car
- Suggestions???
One thing I want to avoid though is black gloss as I know I will be disappointed by its lack of depth and all too tempted to try and polish it!
Silver is my least favourite colour of all, and when I was 'forced' to buy a silver LS430 as there were no other decent examples in a 100mile radius, I was a bit gutted.

Just PLEASE get them to wrap the shuts as well - nothing worse than seeing a two toned car due to a cheap respray or halfarsed wrap.
