Jumping on the heels of the popularity of the 3M ClearBra, 3M has developed a line of vinyl wrap products specifically designed for automobile use. Since its introduction five years ago, this has been one of the most popular "must have" products for show cars, race cars, and manufacturer debuts. When properly installed, this material looks identical to a factory paint job that needs to be seen to be believed. Besides allowing clients to change the color of their vehicle whenever they wish, this vinyl wrap helps protect the car's original paint from rock chips, ultraviolet rays, and road grime. All of the vinyl is completely removable allowing owners to replace pieces if damaged or if they wish to make their car a different color without hurting the resale value. The vinyl film is also becoming popular to use for interior trim pieces and exterior add on's. Hundreds of colors are available including a full line of matte and textured films (including carbon fiber). Prices vary according to application, with the material costing $14/sq ft installed or about $3,500 for a full car coverage. Due to the complexity of each application, vehicles will be seen by appointment only and require a full work week to complete. For more examples of our vinyl work, please check out our gallery section.

Not only does this help prevent those annoying high speed rock chips on your vehicle's front fascia, it also can help prevent major paint damage in minor accidents or parallel parking bumps. Completely transparent and able to cover entire panels in one piece, these films are invisible on a vehicle when properly installed.
