Sorry, no, no gloss black. My hood is wrapped as close to my car's color as they could get, and with a big graphic.

The wrap gathers dust at a faster rate then the rest of the car. I think gloss black would be a nightmare to upkeep.

Paint it, or go CF (Seibon).

Curious, why do you want to do a gloss black hood wrap when you already have a black car?

Hey quick question. Did you purchase your plugs for your front license plate from Bumper plugs or did you go to a body shop? How hard are they to put in?

Got them at the Autozone. They looked something like this, and I just painted them SIM (GAN / WA-636R). They're on there tight and aren't going anywhere. Just push them in with your thumb... they've held up for years:

I was quoting paint and wraps. Painting just the top and not the underneath will run me about $375 with tax. Not sure if I'll need underneath as well. Top and bottom is about $520. A little more if it's fiberglass because he has to block and prime it(whatever that means) and I was told $450 + tax for a wrap.

It's not for this car lol. It's for my new car when I get it. I either want a red or white 6th Gen. I'd want the black package and for my hood to be black as well. Either matte or gloss black. Not sure.

I did mine with carbon fiber vinyl. Mine doesn't compete with Spec's or DWH, but just a different look with a different wrap.
