Default C6 Vinyl Wrap - Color Catalog

Haven't been able to decide on a color to wrap my car in a few years(?). But I have gathered a collection of wrapped C6 pics. Maybe having them all laid out will help.

Anyways, please post pics of fully wrapped C6 and note the brand/color of wrap. Many of these pics are from members. I'll try to post links to their threads where I can.

I recommend everyone order some 1'x5' (standard) samples and try it out! Very simple, great results. Full car wraps done by a pro average ~$2K-3K depending. Buy the stuff yourself for $500 and try!

In no particular order:

Arlon Ultimate Matte Red Aluminum

Cyber Grew Metallic is my favorite OEM paint color but if I had a wrap choice, I would go with something completely different, I'll take the 3M 1080 M227 Matte Blue Metallic minus the skull inlays please..

Most of those are from DIY'ers, now, the pros ? Not as much.

The horror stories I was told or seen are. Rock chips or road debris from daily driving. Bubbles from it sitting out side when warm.

I spoke to one guy who does wraps and he explained wraps are not good for daily drivers or freeway drivers.

I don't usually care for the flat stuff but the satin white pearl looks amazing.

I just wrapped my car in 3M 2080 Satin Black and it looks amazing, definitely stands out and has a very aggressive look. I've had zero issues with mine so far taking care of it and keeping it clean, it's been as easy as the regular paint was so far. It's only been a few weeks so we'll see how it stands against the test of time.

I would lean towards any satin or frozen color scheme versus gloss or matte on the Corvette. The slight bit of shine works much better with the curves of the car versus a matte which is more for flat panel surfaces in my opinion like the G-Wagon.

I like the gloss blue fire, but I'm partial to Blue

I realize this is a fairly old thread but what is it with the high school locker gray?
