Wrapping a Sidekick 2 dr
« on: February 04, 2012, 05:27:01 PM »
I am in a big refresh of my truck and i think about paint my truck my self and after get entire wrapping the truck.
In this option i can get a very nice  graphic and always the solution to get part of graphic damaged by off-road and a very impressive truck on road.

What you think.. It will cost me not very more expensive  than a full profesional paint, a trackick have only 2 doors, fender, trunk, and hood
no bumpers because i will build my own hd

Great idea, wish I'd done it too. Got to hold up better than a shiny paint job being dragged through the tree branches.

That is what we did with mine. It's the factory blue paint with an urban camo wrap on it. The wrap holds up great against limbs to resist obvious scratches. The only tare in the wrap was caused by sliding hard into a 4-6" log and having no way out but to drive out sliding it down the rear quarter. It barely tore but put a decent sized dent in it  :P

It was Art Plus Signs out of Albany, OR. If you are in the area, give Mindy a shout and she can hook you up  8)

I have seen several of these wrap jobs done and the camo pattern ones dont look right, too small of a pattern repeated too many times,  any exesisting dents will show up as bubbles. I would consider wrapping a new vehicle in either a clear or solid color, but a used truck? that will get Monstaliner every time!

A good quality wrap will help with this. Like I said above, the only damage that tore through the wrap was sliding into a large log with enough impact that it dented the fender and then driving out of it while sliding the log down the truck (real muddy spot in Attica). Then it only barely tore the wrap.  8)
