It doesn't look like primer on mine, if anyone has ever ever been to SEMA that's what everyone is doing instead of painting, about half the price of paint jobs. Also they aren't going to wrap the inside of the hood!

Allow me to clarify .. we did not wrap under the hood. We only wrapped the side and rear portions of the engine compartment that would have been visible when the hood is closed. This was needed in order to ensure a seamless wrap over the stone white base color.

I'm sure the price is on the high end, but in my experience, doing aftermarket upgrades in the North East, ie vinyl, powder coating, etc, can be a little pricier since there aren't as many places doing such things as other parts of the country.

I'd also like to see a few more pics.

My friend has a shop out in vegas that does it, it depends on the size of vehicle and what you want done

$800 sounds like a great deal. I'm sure you get what you pay for. My jeep took 2 installers over a week to complete. I requested the highest quality 3M vinyl. I have no visible seams (including the fenders which took a 2 days alone to remove, wrap (1 piece) and reinstall) and no evidence of white from the outside of the vehicle (including all 4 door jams).

Ok so you payed all that money and you only took one picture , post some more pics


And the 800 price is by a guy who works in the field but does it from home because that way he can make more money for himself

And the get what you payed for does not stand up in this thread you are paying for labor not parts

I would think the quality you are going to get will be crap then, I'm in Nebraska and was quoted $3000+.
