I'm considering to have the front of my GT re-wrapped after 7 years, and wondering if wrap shops would have problems with the black "outline" tape bording the organge stripes and with the roundel and # when removing the existing wrap.... Has anyone re-wrap their Heritage? If so, was there any problem when removing the existing wrap material?

thx

I haven't put the new material back on yet but had the old stuff taken off after 5 years. Came off with no problems but the guy doing it was very anal and doing a full detail at the same time.

Be sure to use steam to take it off.

The black pin stripe is pretty easy to replace if it pulls it up. Should not pull up the roundels

I removed and reinstalled the clear bra on my Heritage car about a year ago after 7 years with no problem. The black pin stripe stayed put without any issues.

Thx for the reassuring input!!

I thought these wrap installers use some kind of handheld heater, similar to a hair dryer. Never heard of steam... I'll make sure I'll inquire when talking to installers.

Thx

How about wrapping it in white with blue stripes!

fjpikul would do that in red/white with no hesitation.

I'll have to remember that if it ever comes time to replace my decals:
