What's the cost for something like that? Few grand?

Typicaly a full wrap on a Camaro is about $2500.00. But the choice of wrap could raise the price. Since I choose to have the wrap laminated with a Satin the price went up do to material cost. About $400.00 more. Now if you wanted to wrap a Camaro in one of the chrome wraps your looking at about a 5k job.

Is your car auto or manual?
Also what color you doing the body wrap in? Always love the idea of wrapping mine... is it pricey to get done?

I have a small sample of the wrap. I took a few pics but just no way to pic up it's true color or the metallic. But see for yourself. pics attached

Hard to tell anything from the pictures but I'm guessing it will look bad ass.
I'll never drive my car in snow or rain, just nice days, you know how long the wrap lasts?

Same here. This is a 2nd car. The wrap would last 6-7 years if not abused. AND installed correctly!

That's not to bad. I just wish for close to 3k it was indestructible.
I have Xpel and diamond gloss on my car right now but always wanted to do a sick matte color on my car.
Anyways thanks for the info and good luck on a sweet build and I look forward to some better pictures of that wrap when completed.

Nice build man. You do not hear about Slowhawk on this forum like you do LS1Tech but I know they been around for a while and I have heard nothing but good things about them.

That's true you don't hear much about them here. They are always mentioned over there on LS1 tech , like yout said.
Me personally I would never use them. Not cause there not good at what they do but I lost respect for slowhawk cause they bad mouth other vendors, I would assume to stray business there way. Until I found this out I was considering using them myself.... But I don't roll that way... it shows greed.
Again I'm sure there great installers /tuners but that just puts a bad taste in my month.

Nice build! I love where this is going too, you are going big!

One question though, shouldn't this thread be in the members section with the rest of our build threads?

Whoever represents slowhawk over on LS1tech is constantly bashing a certain individual, won't use any names.. I would post the link but I don't want it to get publicity.
The certain person he bashes I find to be very very good at what he does and have probably thee best customer service of any... and that says a lot cause I've been and dealt with a bunch..
I will send you a private message with the link and you can judge how is character is. After reading it , it just put me off slowhawk.... and again I was strongly considering them...
Not trying to dis your guys, just stating my thoughts... and again I'm sure there good at what they do in the aspects of tuning and install.

Nice way to hijack his thread. Sounds like you're a fanboy of the "other" shop. Regardless, Don knows his stuff and has been working on LS motors since they came out. He's in good hands with a shop with a proven track record. Just the facts.
