Sweet build! It's looking great. I did my brake lines on my Chris Alston Fab 9 like the picture you posted.

Well today I decided to start the wrap on my car. With a new baby and other expenses this is my temporary solution to getting the car looking like a car and so I can at least start to see how it would look when I get the funds needed to paint the car. The firewall was a B*TCH but the rest of the car went smooth. Hope to have the rest wrapped in the next two weeks. We used Avery Brushed Tianium and I have to say I really like it. Should look good with the black wheels. Sorry pics are crappy

The wrap looks great! Did you have to seam it anywhere? How large of a piece/pieces did you buy? Been kicking around the idea of wrapping my Camaro. I'm really impressed with your results.

I got the Avery 75' roll. The only seams so far have been on the fire wall in areas that just cannot be covered without it but the areas you will actually see there will bo no seams. However due to the fact that there is an area where the body doesn't have a window gap from the rear fender onto the roof there will be a seam on each side on top of the roof. The seams are very hard to see and if it bothers me enough I may cover them with vinyl stripes.

Damn That looks nice! Some sweet numbers !! It sounded good in the video. Nice work.

Thank you all for the kind words. Its amazing what a little bit of color on the car can do for motivation. Even if its a wrap!

[69chevelle540]

Got the majority of the rest on today. Very happy.
