Vinyl Wrap

Considering doing a full wrap, wanted to see what you guys thought of the following. They will all be 3M 1080 Films.

The roof of Einser M's 1M was wrapped with 3M 1080, so he certainly can comment on his experiences: http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=649757

My personal choice would be the Gloss Blue Metallic. Since it's not one of the choice, I went with Brushed Steel Blue.

3M 1080 Series is a great product...we wrap cars here in Arizona in 3M 1080 quite a bit. I'd go with one of the blue's...steel blue or intense blue...they look amazing once fully done.

I've often thought that it would be cool to wrap the 1M like the warhol art M1.

IMO go with gloss over matte, the latter has been overplayed with both wraps and now factory options from BMW and MB. Gloss intense blue would be my choice from the above list.

So many of these have already been done especially on other cars out there so why do it again (such as all matte). Therefore I say go with those which are unique and special. BRUSHED!
