I have a 13 zl1 and was wanting to get it wrapped in a mat forest green.
Where can you get it done in the central Texas area? What isthe cost? Is it easy to wash? Any fading issues?
Thanks ahead of time for y'alls help

I can't help you out with a wrap in Texas, but I just had my SS wrapped here in PA. It is easy to care for. Don't use a pressure washer. Hand-wash only. Spray wax and microfiber towels for spot cleaning. As far as fading, my car is garage kept, so it won't be an issue for me. The company that did mine (ThreeFour Wraps), said a wrap on a daily driven car should last 3-5 years with general car care. Good luck!

Here's my car in 3M Cosmic Blue:

Thank you! ThreeFour Wraps did a fantastic job! I took it to an Open House at a local Chevy dealer last weekend (two guys were receiving their new ZR1 Vettes). It got a lot of looks. Several people couldn't tell if it was a wrap or not. The quality of workmanship is second to none.

So you know or seen Street Speed 717 and in his area?? The ZR1 is a awesome ride.

Yea, that is the dealer I went to (Whitmoyer). They move a lot of Corvettes. SS717 had his ZR1 there and another guy took delivery. Black, auto. Odd though, he opted for the standard GT seats instead of the Competition seats. I got a few pics. Pretty cool!

You may want to PM SumWhite1LE a member here he's in OKC he does wraps and I saw his in person but the "test car" look he had on I couldn't speak for quality because of the design but he may be able to do or hook you up. I forget his name but was good to deal with. I'm curious what a job like this runs as I'm clueless to whats involved
good luck

A professional uses 3m products and knifeless tape to cut the seams with minimal use of a heatgun.

A hack uses your car's paintjob as a cuttingboard for his razor knife and burns up the wrap and your paint with lots of heat.
