Vinyl Wrap on LS #482

Saw this on another forum. Just thought I would post up the pictures that the guy posted of his wrapped LS.

Thanks for posting that, always wondered what it would look like. Hope the wheels are next on his list.

I'd like it better if he left the rear spoiler red. What did he do with the faux gas cap? I've been thinking of doing something similar with my LS cap but it's a PITA taking it apart considering such a small project. I want to paint or wrap the mounting base to match the matte black deck lid decal but leave the chrome Ford ring.

He taped it off, scotchbrited it and sprayed it flat black.

Title was misleading. I was expecting some awesome wrap, not random pieces. I'm thoroughly disappointed.

Looks pretty good in pictures, anyone know how that roof might look in real? If it's not paint, can you tell?

Not sure I'd got that far with mine, but it does look pretty cool. Except the back, but I'm pretty picky about taillights.

You can tell the roof is a wrap, look closely and you can see red showing through the very outside edge of the roof near the rear window.

He ruined a perfectly sexy black Boss LS. wtf.

Since a wrap can be unwrapped in a few hours, including a good a wax to remove all the residue....did he really ruin a prefectly sexy Boss???

Not the way I would have gone..... agreed. Ruined?? Permanent??? Not hardly.

I don't mind the taillights. However, I think they'd look better on the cars with the black accents, i.e. YB, CO/B, RR/B.

I didn't mean ruined permanently, but to me until he removes the wrap it is ruined and I don't have control over removing it.

Wow, that looks rough. I know what he was going for, but the execution was awful. The taillight covers and black faux gas cap really don't do anything for me.

A better solution: gloss black wrap of roof panel, black CS spoiler, vinyl inlay between tails, and another set of tails sprayed with a diluted black paint mixture to tint them (not Nightshades). Throw some 302S wheels on there, along with some reflective black C stripes, and that car would look mean.
