The black rims look much better on a white car. Just my personal taste but I've never liked black rims on black cars.

Beautiful car! I have a 3M wrap as well and am super happy with the results. Only annoying part of the vinyl wrap are the water marks after washing.

3M will run you anywhere from $2k - $2600 depending on the color & finish.

Prices for wrapping car in Vancouver last year ranged from $3000-$6000 depending on the quality of the install.

I have a gloss finish on my wrap and water marks are abundant if not dried properly after washing or rainfall. I'm not sure if matt finishes has the same issue. Isopropyl and water mixture does help in getting rid of them.

I just got mine wrapped and havent washed it yet. I'll report back once washed. My vinyl installer recommended using air dry (leaf blower) at a low speed to get rid of the excess water hidden & tucked away places.

Thanks
I wished it was that cheap here, it's 4 to 6K here from inexperience wrappers. Getting tired of black. I want some type of light blue.
