WOWZA!!! That is really nice! Did they wrap the door jams as well and how long did it take?

Thanks man!

No, they didn't do any of door jams. Just the exterior. It would've cost more to do a lot of the interior parts.

As far as timing, the shop had my Tahoe for about 5 days. They literally took off a lot of pieces...front and rear bumper, tail and head lights etc... and then they had to reassemble everything.

Usually it takes about 3-4 days and the final day is to let everything cure.

The jambs and stuff would be crazy hard to wrap. My CC had a complete color change (paint) by the PO and I can't tell it was ever silver unless I pull the interior out. I can see how much work they put into it and when you open up the doors or hood and look there's hinges, latches, etc that had to be painted even after they removed every bit of trim. To wrap that would be even harder than painting it.

That color is sick. Did they wrap the front bumper in 1 piece or two?

A good quality wrap job always impresses me. You have a killer ride.

You can’t wrap a bumper like that in 1 piece due to stretching. Vinyl only has so much stretch. It was likely done in a minimal of 7pieces. The trick is in hiding the seams!

Really do like this. Have thought about wrapping one of my vehicles before but had never seen one done like yours. I feel better about the expense but still wonder about rock chips, etc. Can you keep us informed about how this works for you long term?

Definitely do it!

I thought about it for over 6 months and don't regret it at all!

I also had the wrap ceramic coated as well to protect the wrap from any kind of out door crap...dirt, bird crap etc...

Where do you have that done and what was the cost???

I just dropped off my 2011 Tahoe yesterday to get a full wrap done.

It's being wrapped in the Avery Gloss Dark Grey.

Here is what the Tahoe looks like now and the color its getting wrapped in.

Three years and change JT, how's the wrap holding up?
