It’s simple: girls like diamonds, and guys like chrome.Any guy who loves his car, bike or truck, will usually try to get a tasteful amount of chrome accents on it when the budget allows.What one would commonly see is wheels, exhaust, interior trim, engine dress-up pieces, and the like.But what about having a chrome car?Well unless you own an oil empire in Saudi Arabia, you may have to settle for chrome wrap.
Some of you may be asking, “What is a wrap?”For those who are new to this, I’ll explain.It’s pretty much what it sounds.A large sheet (or precut pieces of vinyl) is placed over a car.It’s as simple as that.Doing this will give the car a completely new look such as changing the car’s color, adding graphics, or both.Take a look at this black Mustang being turned blue!

Any car modification in my mind comes down to “what’s the price?”A shop in the Orlando, Florida area wrapped a 2013 Infinity G37 Coupe for about $8000.That’s a lot of money to someone like me, and probably to most of the people reading this.Most typical vinyl wraps can cost anywhere from $2000 to $4000 or more.Is an extra $4000 really worth getting your car to look like a mirror?That depends on the person with the car and wallet.
All I have to say, is you better have a garage to keep that thing in, because that would be a (insert chosen word) to clean.
