I really like the look, I have two questions: 1, roughly how much, and 2, how hard is it to restore back to original.... man that looks good

I believe that the price for a wrap of top notch quality would cost around 3K - and about 1 grand when you want it removed.

Here is another picture, this really shows the brushed metal texture - running your hand over it, it really feels like bare metal.

Red is actually the toughest color to put a wrap on. They did a great job especially since you said they did not remove the headlights.

Thanks I'm quite pleased myself..

I paid around $3K and the place did a stellar job - just perfect! They removed side markers, side indicators, mirrors, air ducts, rear lights the rest stayed on, and you can't even see no red around the head lights ect. I do need to have some more gray put on the bottom panel where the door closes, you can spot a little red under the door when bending down. The air ducts, mirrors and clam air vents did get painted...

It might not be no Mercury 4 and in some peoples eyes be a poor mans paint job, but I still love it :thumbsup

Just need to decide on some 19/20 inch wheels, but there are so many nice to choose from. ADV1 5 spoke or 10 spoke is my fav at this point..
(just "borrowed" the 19/19" wheels of Rays matte red for a minute:biggrin)

I think that particular wheel would look great, center lugs and all.

I was skeptical in the first picture, but the last shots look very nice.

Those ADV's (especially the 10's) look great to me. Just get some black lugs and then you don't need to worry about doing the center lock conversion. Unless you want to.......in which case I wholly recommend changing the hubs so that those BBS F1's as per the other thread will fit ;-)

One of 101 I really like what you have done to your car, Bravo, Here is a picture of the ADV1.10 wheels you mentioned. This picture is a photo shop creation.
Perhaps you can use it to Photo shop these wheels on to your car to have a look. I am currently fitting these to my car in a 20" front and rear with black lug nuts as superfly mentioned.

Loranzo,
That photoshop crop has the wheels in 20/22 inch and I would like to go for a smaller combo - but it sure looks great in that picture... I would go for silver center nut if I went that route...
