Helpful video - thanks! $1,000 is indeed a screaming deal!!

If it was only $1k, I'd wrap mine this week. Last company I asked, ir was 5k.

I just asked a local shop here in Seattle. $3,800. Too much. So I bought the stuff from the jungle site--and am now wrapping it myself. About halfway done. It's not rocket science. And it's actually kinda satisfying for this ADHD girl.

It was also 3 years ago. I feel like the price has gone up drastically for everything. Both great wraps and great paint jobs (even pricier) are definitely not cheap.

I've seen cheap jobs that chalk and flake in 6 months. Wrap is cool if you have disposable income for it. Point is you're paying for a less durable surface that doesn't last as long. Plus washing, maintenance. And parking under trees with birds. Pollen in the spring. Parking in sunlight, humidity and rain. Just keeping it real...nobody is gonna get much skin unless its a garage queen.

I’m always curious to hear how wraps are holding up. Great update!

Glad it was helpful!

Gonna be sad to see the matte green go away when the time comes for a new wrap! Alwats loved the green/black conbo your wagon has. Random question - do you know what brand the roof rack you have is? Looking at options that won't break the bank rn.

Like you mentioned in the beginning of the video, i can only imagine how often you get approached, especially with the wrap. Ever since i got my sportwagen, I've had a surprising amount of people talk to me about it and give it compliments and i havent even done anything to it yet 😂

Definitely!

Good update - best way to transform the look of your car - What is the expected lifespan of your wrap? Is 3-4 years for a garage kept car more or less typical? I've seen some long-term wrap removal videos that make it apparent that a wrap is not a one and done type of change. Appreciate the content - fellow Alltrack owner!

Thanks so much - the life span is all over the place. I've seen as low as 3 and as high as 7 years. And yes, i wouldn't assume a wrap is going to last the lifespan of typical ownership. I think my goal is to stick with it through this winter... and see where my heart/mind is then.

Vinyl has to eventually be removed. Add that to the cost of vinyl wrapping. I'd rather have the car painted.

Adding a comment here since it's the newest video and I'm not on instagram. How is the IS38? Are you still running the Uni tune? Still worth it? I recently picked up an Alltrack and trying to decide between IS20, IS38, or going even bigger.

yes and yes and yes. Still very satisfied with it all and is a blast to drive. I have no reliability issues.

Cool video and I really dig your car and the color. My question with wrap has always been...what does it look like when you remove it? Are they scratches where they use a razor to trim it at all the seams?

It’s a roll of the dice depending on who did it and how hung over they were that day.

How long did the 2nd superwrap on the wheels hold up for? I cant find a follow up video.

About 2 years. Just under.

Did the wrap protect the paint from chipping on the hood?

Is most cases yes from what I can tell. In at least one case - no.
