QUOTE(Wroetoshaw97 @ Nov 22 2018, 02:18 PM) Not worth to spend on wrap.How long you plan to use it? C300 default is 19 inch amg trim right ? It is also very sporty enuf. Unless you want to change ultra light weight BBS lah. Uh.. wait. 19 inch BBS cost more than 12k This post has been edited by 168257061: Nov 22 2018, 02:29 PM |

Im only worried about the insurance if gt accident..they always find the smallest details not to compensate you. But to be fair the colour that i want to wrap is stated as ' Satin White Aluminium' and my original car colour is already white. So if i am to declare the changes i would say im changing to white? lolBut, as u said, small difference only.....so, it really depends on judgement of the officer and insurance lah......see whether they want to cari pasal with u or not....but, if your car no accident, no insurance claim, even u kena tahan police or jpj won't ask u show vehicle registration card right?

QUOTE(Wroetoshaw97 @ Nov 22 2018, 01:41 PM) 5k straight paint the entire car.Wrapping you will regret later. My experience: i used Oracle some more, wrap the roof top, after couple years unwrap, now the center part of my roof top is black color. The wrap paper color eat into my orginal car paint sad... If someone tell you wrap car = protect paint = bs = it will damage the paint. Unless you park your car at basement carpark 24/7. Car wrap is for ppl that like to keep changing color of the car. Further, the wrap will start to fade once expose to hot sun and it cannot be restored like spray car paint with simple polish and wax. |

if accident you lagi regret cause the car paint shop sifu will screw you gao gao, he need to remove the wrap in order to repair your car.
then you go do the wrap again for the damaged parts lagi regret once more time cause the new wrap color is different. It cannot be tuned or matched like normal respray sifu did for repairing paint. think triple times my friend. |

Originally, wrap is for advertisement, short term usage. |
