Matte black wrap my NSX

Don't worry about the wide body kit... I'm assuming the primary intent for wrapping this car is for company advertising, not for trying to make it a crazy show car.
Plus if I was actually considering wrapping my vehicle, I would be more interested in checking out the quality of the wrap job versus what crazy modifications the car has on it. Nice work!
Just curious, how many hours did it take you?

I took it to get aligned and let the younger mechanic drive it around the block....you can see the wrap pretty good in this video

sorry not a fan for 2 reasons:
1. Formula Red is the only way to go! (like mine)
2. Just to trendy and ghetto, but maybe you are a rapper?

Lol. No offense to u neither but red is too 1980's throwback for me.
Not a rapper yet but not opposed to becoming one!
You're trying too hard. While I can appreciate the time put in, our cars look much better solid/simple colors. If your goal is flat or matte black, wrap the whole car in that, wing included. When you leave out side skirts, specific roof sections, silver front valance, and tacky logo's all over the car it looks like you hit a deer or repaired a totalled NSX and cannot afford to paint the car one solid color. I must say I just saw the most recent pictures and it does look a bit better.
Cleaner is always better. But what do I know, opinions are like a-holes everyone has them and if you're happy with the way it looks I'm all for it and can definitely appreciate the labor involved.

Very happy with it and it's influenced my work load tremendously so all smiles but thanks for your thoughts.
Is your car apple green?!?
Can't complain with that then.
My car is Oem Lime Green Metallic. It is a factory special order color.
I understand you're new here (1 month), do a little research on our cars it'll go a long ways:

Glad to see that you took the advice on the hood logo, very nice die-cut work.
I'm in the process of wrapping a Honda Blackbird(streetbike) and can appreciate the skill involved in doing a full car especially with the curves of an NSX.
First rule of business: Paint your wagons
Well done and best to you
Any tips on how you cut lines so straight on that charger for the stripes?
Do you lay down the big section and then take a straight edge, line it up, and then take a sharp knife and very carefully cut the wrap along the straight edge but between where it's sticking to the paint and laying on the straight edge?

Hey man
It's tough to get it just right... There are a couple of ways. First choice would be let the plotter (if u have one). The other is to lay the vinyl down then apply masking tape on top and use the lead edge to gently run ur exacting line down the vinyl
Call me if you need help or vinyl
hi United
simple question....
looking at the passenger door in your close up pics,it kinda looks like scuff marks all over it, is this the case? is it a wrap that you have to be very careful not to touch it? just curious..
the blacked out logo does look way better..
Gary~

I guess...I would like to see a picture of your car g3driver.
Hey man. No it's not scratched to my knowledge at all. It's VERY durable and I even wash it once a week with the pressure washer then I simply wipe it down every other night with a solution that is half water half 91 proof rubbing alchohale. It's cleans up so easy and always looks great.
Here you go:

g3driver- Your car looks great!
I don't understand why they asked to see it because you were just saying the same thing as most of the red, black and silver guys do. Most of us are used to hearing it :wink:.

Nothing wrong with it.

People say that all the time about "their" color. NSX is the only way to go! In any color. :biggrin:
Lol. We can make this happen!
