matte red e90.

should i do it?

never seen any e90 done before, and the only matte red i've seen is the m3 and that was painted.

im planning out something to do in summer and what better time to do a vinyl wrapping then in the sun!

anyone know where i can pick up a roll?

I can only find websites selling black, silver, army green ().

Any good vinyl shop should be able to supply you with matte red. Ive been working at a shop for about 7 years now and we have done some matte finish wraps in various colors such as orange and lime green. If you need any advice or tips PM me anytime.

i contacted a couple of vinyl shops and got estimates on the price.
looks like itll be in the ballpark of 300-500 dollars.
this is gonna be a fun project in the summer!
