Looking forward to seeing updates when you have time to upload more pics

I'll be updating it every week or so...It's so busy at the shop right now so it's tough. Doing a full wrap on a Genesis Coupe in orange right now

Worst show ever above was my first show ever! Finally got to meet all you goons! Granted it was pouring rain ALL day but worth it!

Looking forward to seeing the new set-up.

Oh and LOL at Darryl, WTF?

Looking forward to reading you updates! Glad to hear you are doing well with the business! I remember all these things as they came along lol. So your going to branch into different cosmetic mods for the business or just keep it with wrapping??

This thread is awesome!

Just Ordered my NEW COLOR!!!! So excited it's never been done in the states before or our good old Internet didn't find it hahaaa.

I'm actually based out of a performance shop so we can literally get anything done. I want to have "connections and just do builds for people overall.

Petrol Werks Performance

Yup that's the shop I work at I'm also doing my interior with High End Performance as well. Then we have the BC racing sponsorship and obviously PHENOMenal Vinyl.

UPDATE!!!

Starting my new color tonight. I cannot disclose any pictures since it's never been done in the US. Soon enough though. I'll update teasers though . Getting rims and tires done this week and wrapping

Update Started the color and painted the tails. Ordered the stereo parts and still trying to figure out the seats.

Wooooo!!! I found the lowest part of my car today!!! We dumped this thing but to be honest it's still missing seats among other things so it might be a tad lower with the added weight.

So we got my system running and all I can say is WOW!! it's so loud I'm very satisfied with the purchase once hearing it. It's not even at full power and I can see the trunk flexing like crazy. I need to dynamat the hell out of her then put more stuff in it including the seats and some others. We ran into some bodyshop issues and had to go back for more work on the door and on the sideskirts. We're only doing it the right way plus I have a ton of customers coming in and out so the car isn't my first priority. Once I have more pictures you will see but the color is still undisclosed







Rims are Rota grids just like the last photo but I got them powdercoated. I'm waiting on a sponsorship and then we'll get something with some status like volks etc

What happened to the fiberglass sub box you built? Or were you just using the wooden box in the pic above to get everything installed and tested?

Subscribed! Can't wait for this year's Carlisle to see and party with everyone again!

hahahaha love this thread..... love how i get the flat tire... lmao not this year!!

You happen to have taken the picture in the right lighting, at the right angle, with the right stuff in the background so that EVERY time I glance at this thread and see this



I think I'm actually seeing this lol

Are you sure those are Rota Grids? I think Grids are 6 spoke. Those look like P45R's

I like these kinds of wheels. Simple and clean.

Bumped...

Yo where is the video of Brett's wrap? You need to post that up in here for sure. Are they doing yours the same way? Such a sick video...

Holy crap that looks crazy!!!!!! I like that color man, very cool!

What are those front fenders on your coupe? They're cool!

Damn that color is sick! Looks good bro

Extreme dimensions and I hate them... But that's because the ammount of bodywork you need on them is just stupid.

yeah a buddy of mine has the ED fenders also and he had alot of problems with them. they didnt fit correctly and the first time he opened his door with them on, a piece of the fender chipped cause it didnt line up correctly.

So I know you've done countless wraps and I was wondering if you take your door handles off to get underneath or do you just cut and tuck it under

I'm asking because I'm hoping to do a wrap soon and I'd like to take the handles off and am wondering if you know an easy way around it??

yea door handles come off suh a cleaner look.... wrapping mt car fully tomorrow and we just took door hanleds off and matt and i have done them twice n everytime they are the biggest b****.... theres no easy way around them... the windows have to be up.. the whole inside door pannel has to come off theres baout 12 bolts that come off and then need some to hold the windo just incase and inside theres the side screw and screw from the inside pannel and key whole peiece has to come out first and on the driver side the mechanism has to be disconnected n then twisted out a certian way n.. n then the passanger side no mechanism but have to push from the side of the door were u unscrew the side screw n twist out the small square n once you do that the door handle get pushed towards back of the car and then comes out... theres a write up somewhere on it my explanation is jsut top of my head n not detailed... but if you have trouble bring to a boddy shop or a mechanic... its realllllyyyyy annoying
