997 turbo car wrapping

Just wondering who on here has wrapped their car? What was the cost? Any recommendations in the palm beach area? Thinking of matte red or white. I'Ve seen them range from $1500 to $5000. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

My friends shop wraps a lot of porsche cup cars. We are in SoCal so pricing could be a little different in your area. If you like I'll ask him what a full 911 wrap cost with his company

If you could that would be great. I'm sure it would have to be similar in price. Thanks

Have you considered doing it with Plastidip? I know it sounds crazy, but I've seen a few cars done with it, and honestly you can't tell the difference between that and a wrap. There's some local guys that do it. dipyourcar.com I think...

When using plasti dip. You can see shades of lighter and darker areas at different angles. Plus it's a ***** to get off. I've seen it done before and then the aftermath of getting it off. It didn't look fun. Thanks for the thought though.

Hi There sorry for the delayed response on this... the vendor I spoke with said a full color change wrap on a 911 would run $2200. if you want graphics or multiple layers on the wrap (matte, with sections of chrome or print) you are looking at $3000-3200.

I have had this vendor wrap my Tundra with my company information and it turned out great, I asked them to come up with something for the 911 and will post back with what they come up with. They are turning out 2-3 full 911 wraps per week... most are cup cars but some are street driven

If you were in Vegas I could get you an amazing wrap for $2,500 including door jams.

Curious who is the shop? do they do clear bras as well? I just had my old one removed and need to get a new one pretty soon.

$3000K is worth every penny on the rear valance. I have done my mirrors and hood. Not just for the looks but, it also aids in track protection.

I'll have to check on the clear. The shop is one11ink.com I think they have a few photos of 911's on their Instagram but the website needs a refresh. They are located in Valencia ca. Did a great job on my truck and a couple friends boats. There is always high end cars in their shop

Who wants overspray on their cars? I cringe on this process and even on a "smart car."

I had my car vinyl wrapped for $2400 in matte black. It looks awesome and they did a high quality job. Obviously price will vary depending on location

Can anyone comment on the gloss colors in person? Do they actually look like paint? Does the wrap get marring from standard washes? Is this really a solution for people who want a color change? I'm always curious about the door jambs with these wraps
