WRAPPING The Roof Of My STRAIGHT PIPED Subaru SVX BLACK
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Paint on 25 year old cars usually isn't in the best shape, and this 1994 Subaru SVX LSi is no different. The clear coat is failing and the car appears to have been painted once already, there is paint and clear on the seals making them much harder to lift and clean. We got it prepped and slapped some Avery SW900 gloss black vinyl wrap on the roof to really tie the windows together and visually lower the roof line even more. If you want to know why we use SW900, we used to do roofs in Oracal 970RA but it's hard to tuck under the seals sometimes due to the thickness, 3M 1080 is incredibly thin and stretchy, SW900 seems to be the perfect balance for speed and quality. This Subaru SVX is straight piped and the EG33 H6 engine screams like an exotic car close to redline.

You should wrap the trunk lid, spoiler, and the side trim bits (under the rear windows) gloss black as well! Itll hide the faded color on the trim bits and bad clear coat on the trunk and overall looks a million times better. Some color SVX actually came with that 2 tone scheme from factory
Your channel is amazing for someone trying to get into the automotive scene. You explain everything so well and your personality is great. Keep it up dude, I hope your channel blows up even more, you deserve it. Honestly the best automotive youtuber I have watched in a long time.
need to tint the windows to really set it off.
Places charge the same price as a paint job to wrap your car, love this DIY.

I think it really depends on your area. I was trying to get my car painted or wrapped and wrap quotes came to about 2,500-3,500. Paint was 5,000-20,000.

Now all you have to do is fix the trunk lid because its just as bad as the roof.

I just want to let you know I appreciate your time-lapse because there's nothing more boring than watching a video where they literally don't edit anything. It's like watching paint dry when KZreadrs do that. 👍 Also the roof wrap was huge improvement. You could probably sell it back to Tyler now for twice the price. No, on second thought wait until it throws a rod through the hood and then sell it back at twice the price. 😂

normal youtuber puts outro at the end jr puts it in the middle
The wrap sure made the roof look better and it did blend in with all the other black. Amazing what a thin sheet of plastic can do....
What is the song used when you are wrapping the roof? It's soo good and i need more of it in my life
You guys should come to the dunes here in Oregon. Put some paddle tires on those ATvs and have a blast.
Digging the content man. Cool having a local on KZread. Cool car too. Wouldn't mind lining it up with my SHO one day. Always wanted to run one of these subarus. Keep it up.
I always thought the Subaru SVX and Ford Probe looked so much like the other. I have to admit when Ford discontinued the Probe I was surprised.
Can you do an update video on all projects, where you store all of these cars, if you still have the EXP, and what’s going on with your camaro, would be a cool vid
Great job. Looks nice

Thanks! I wish I could paint it but that would be going too far 💪
I always loved those. The look will and has stood the test of time. Are you going to go with Antique tags? If you plan on keeping it for awhile that'd be the most economic route to go. You won't have to renew them each year. Can't wait to see the progress of this car.
Wrap the rest of the car a matte silver or something. Would look awesome
Nice. I have an old 99 commodore, ( basically a 4 door gto or and old g8 ) in white i was thinking of wrapping the roof and c pillars in a flat metallic sky blue just to make it a bit different from the others.
Zack needs his own channel.
you ever tried Hi Ball energy drinks. specifically the sparkling water unsweetened, I like them for the carbonation and the citric flavors, I don't do sugar or the artificially flavored stuff they come in grapefruit, lime and berry flavors that I have found, it's break from just having plain water all the time, they do have the sweetened versions of these drinks for those who have to have their sugar fix too.
Hey what about Audi R8??
I'd live to see you do a carbon fiber roof sometime.
yo that music is lit af!!!!!
That wrap and straight pipe had to add 4mph to top end speed! But it does look and sound a whole lot better....
How bout the trunk and hood next ?

would have liked to have seen you wrap more of the car- as the paint is imperfect in many spots. maybe do more in a future episode?

I put a blue hood on my k5 blazer and not ready to paint blazer and don't want to try to match paint on hood... So i want to use vinyl carbon fiber... You made roof look so easy, i might try my hood

ya need to do the Hatch too thats altogether a differently color from the rest of the car
@JRGO Hey bud, I saw you was lubricating the hinge for the door, the noise you're hearing sounds like the door is catching against the fender, check the fender gap and loosen bolts and pull fender forward slightly if it is catching on the door bud.
That makes me wanna do my roof matte white on my 99 civic 5 speed
Are these pretty rare in the US? I think we only have about 20 left here Australia.
Need to wrap that bottom pillar where it says svx
Does he still run a wrap shop? Was thinking of getting my old prius wrapped up in something since the clearcoat has gone on my car...
Retrofit projector headlights and install HIDs
Do the hood and trunk lid as well!
My svx has the same door Hinge problem
Not too shabby guys, it's almost like you've done this a few times.
AC in the garage, it must be really hot there in Kansas, I like the idea!
if you did the whole upper beltline black with a window tint to match, it would look fantastic
J.R you should wrap the rest of the car in a different color of course. It looks great my friends 🙌 Salute 😎
What about the trunk lid ?
Zach has the hookup!!
PLEASE keep that Ford 2000 as immaculate as it appears to be now! About time there was a tractor in a JRGo vid ;-) Love the SVX, an amazing concept that never really hit its intended mark but is cool now because of that. By the way, the UK-market ones may have had a black roof ex-factory; the only one I ever saw "new" was metallic wine red with a gloss black roof.

Yeah Quad for life.
I think I just bought those same wheels on the SVX for my car.
And that I call a party
Roof looks much better.
Whenever I wrap the roof on the SVX I puff on the Cannabis Cigar and get all schmoked up.
I need to drive my Rover out and have Zach wrap it.

I thought the roof was supposed to be gloss black originally anyways.

ok, so quick question. I have a corolla that has surface rust (it's just paint level rust, not gouged rust). If I sanded the rust off, would a wrap be ideal? or should I look at repainting?

That looks like one panel (no transition) and the sunroof. I'd just sand it down and repaint it.

A lot of times the drain for the sun roof gets so clogged or the drain hose gets broken in side the car and there is no replacement for it. Times it is better to wrap the top
I’m sure the wrap added 40 horsepower and it now does 0 to 60 under 15 minutes 🧚🏻♀️.
