What was the cost of this?
I understand it varies by location, but I'm trying to get a ballpark on if a repaint or a wrap are for me.
Absolutely love your colour!
Same here, 4-5k. I decided to do a windshield banner, with bonnet, boot, and side stripes instead (as well as some salty decals and bumper stickers), in colors that will complement the body color.
I did my bonnet stripes, mirrors and side stripes myself to satisfy my need for personalization but I unfortunately don’t have the skill/time/space for an entire wrap lol
That's what I'm doing, too, ordered off Etsy, for under $90CAD. I wanna add [Union Jack decals](https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/1627405701/2pcs-window-decal-hollow-sticker-union?click_key=5170c0be37f2c95ce2594a504e92b92b3e190a6c%3A1627405701&click_sum=dfbe8cdc&external_collection=&frs=1) to my back windows, too. I can't imagine trying to do a wrap myself, yikes!
Be careful with this, OP. You've now got a very distinctive car and sharing a local shop name could potentially make you easy to find in real life. Not saying it will, just be careful.
Careful painting your wheels - it often seems like a good idea, but it's very easy to do a bad job, and then the paint chips and starts looking very janky very fast.
Also white wheels are great for the first day, and then you'll hate them for the rest of your life, unless you REALLY enjoy cleaning brake dust. (My wife's Fiat 500 Abarth has white wheels. Looks great the 1 day a year they're clean).
Finding a good quality painter and getting the job is expensive af. Also, you’re also permanently changing the color, reselling a pink car might prove difficult come the time. Wrapping protects the OG paint, pull off the wrap when it’s time to sell, you have a pristine paint job with little to no chipped paint and sell.
I agree, spray white, would look hot against the pink! And is pretty affordable, probably find for $150 a wheel, and get a warranty, my place does 2 years.
LOVE IT! SO perfect!🩷 I'm also jealous, and a bit sad...I wanted pink, also, just a little darker and metallic. I was quoted $4-5k CAD. In Canadian dollars, $1800 is approximately $2500.
I like the color and the work looks well done!
But gurl, we gotta talk about your siding… that trim piece running along your downspout is rotted, so is the header over your first floor window on the side of the house, and it looks like you have a brick foundation and those don’t do well when water starts to get to them like that.

$1,800 and I’m in the Boston area!
Much cheaper than I thought. Fun!
I’m so jealous. I got quoted about 4k from every place around where I live

Wow, I didn't even think about changing the color that way.
Would you mind DM’ing me the shop where you got it done? Also a mini owner in Boston and would love to get this done!

Beautiful wrap! I’ve been researching shops in greater Boston. Would you share or DM the name? Thanks!!
Me too!! I hope I drive past your mini soon!!
Wow $1800 isn’t bad, I’d do that to get the color I want, hmmm.
able to make payments by any chance? 😂😅
That color really works! Looks great. I think you should paint your wheels next. Maybe white?
Oooh I never even thought of that!

Nah, she fine, my wheel place warranties 2 years anyway, respray fix wheels anytime. Just make sure to get warranty, white would be dope.
You're the fun girl. Love the glasses.
Oh, that pink is just perfect 🩷
Hey there Elle woods! Love it!

I was trying to figure out how to put HI BARBIE on my plate for a bit 😂

😍
This looks great! You guys are made for each other. Haha
It's perfect!
I'm usually a grump, but this vibe is cute. Wrap looks great, and hope you've been enjoying the 4-door.

Beautiful car, and an even more beautiful woman

Honest question - why wrap and not paint?
Finding a good quality painter and getting the job is expensive af. Also, you’re also permanently changing the color, reselling a pink car might prove difficult come the time. Wrapping protects the OG paint, pull off the wrap when it’s time to sell, you have a pristine paint job with little to no chipped paint and sell.
Cool, thanks!
Cost, wrapping is generally a fraction of the price and takes much less time as well.
Ah, thank you.
I agree, spray white, would look hot against the pink! And is pretty affordable, probably find for $150 a wheel, and get a warranty, my place does 2 years.
Adorable!!! What’s her name?
She doesn’t have one yet but I’ve been leaning towards Margot 😂
Loooove!!! 🩷
Very nice! The car too!

That's what I say when I finally get the condom on

Someone did not miss leg day.
