Thumbs up PetShrk gets surgery!! ;) Skinzwraps

Well Skinzwraps flew in Boris from Texas last night and as I am typing he is in my garage working on the transformation! He will need 2 full days to complete. Photoshoot planned for Saturday am with Kirby already

I will be taking pics in a few and uploading the progress. Boris rocks!

Did the pieces come pre cut or did Boris hand cut them?

Using a blow torch on the CF seems like a really bad idea. Looks like it'll be sick when it's done tho!

My God Fred, Is this going to be permanent?, because I too must echo the sentiments that using a blow torch on Carbon Fiber is not a good idea. If you are going to take that off then heating up the resin to that temperature will not be a pretty site. I hope they gave some kind of a guarantee, especially on a $500K machine.. Looks dynamite though!!

That looks insane! I can't wait to see the final product.

Maybe this is a dumb question, but what kind of maintenance does the vinyl wrap require? Do you just wash it like you would any other car?

Out of curiosity, how much does this type of wrap run?

And where in Tx is Boris from?
