What color wrap should I get?

[monarck]

you know it

Nice... same here. Did they do the spoiler install and headlight tint too?

That orange accenting looks very sharp, pops but not overstated, great choice on that body colour.

Colour name details?

Isn't that the 3M Satin Dark Grey posted by @monarck ? It looks just like a MSM colored Model 3 with Xpel Stealth wrap.

Want to update you all with the color combo. Let me know what you all think.

I think @gundamz44 has the same 3M Satin Dark Gray wrap that I do. I think if it was expel it'd be a little lighter in color and a slightly different shine to it.

 

[gundamz44]

Yeah, I went with the Satin Dark Gray with burnt orange accent. I also did the brake caliper in the orange. There's currently no wrap for the lights but let me know what you think I should do there.

Does headlight tint lower the brightness of the headlights? Where I live has no streetlights and I don't want to lower the brightness.

They have the clear one for protection.

I don’t think it dims the brightness all that much someone had one and posted in FB somewhere, but I guess you can get other color tints instead of smoke. Haven’t seen it on the 3, but you’ll see on google/amazon, other cars with yellow, orange, blue...

it does a little bit but not enough to dim it to unsafe levels since stock headlights are pretty bright

regular non tinted film is available if you just want to protect it without dimming it

I'm down to 3M 1080 in either Satin Perfect Blue or Gloss Flip Deep Space. I'm leaning towards the Deep Space, but it's nearly an extra $1000 (directional wraps require more labour and material to lay properly). Here's a couple clips, from a TMC poster, of what it looks like on the Model 3.

Mid-day light:

Near sunset light (notice the gold/bronze metal really pops in this lighting):

That was mine, I sold it a couple weeks ago. I wish it was MORE blue and red. In the eve it was actually some gold and reddish. Neat color for sure and LOTS of attention. Careful with the Matte colors they are mo,re maintenance after having gloss and matte both at times.

Good to hear you were able to move it. Next time you could check out Avery's Roaring Thunder. It's similar but very red-blue.

Thanks for the heads up on the matte/satin finishes.

Somebody wrapped their 3 in this green/chrome type wrap and although it's too much for me it definitely looks amazing.

I keep going back and forth on keeping my MSM as is vs doing a stealth wrap. The matte looks so cool.

Just matte. It needs car wash with no wax mixed in.
Satin finish doesn’t need extra care like that.

exterior wise, from what you see: the wrap was 2500, chrome delete another 400. spoiler 230. headlight tint 70. tint 400.

Your car looks great! Was the tint on the rear windshield one piece? Can you see any lines when viewed from the inside? Thanks!

Just received my M3 is ready for delivery this weekend. The very first thing I plan to do is to put change color with wrap. I ordered the basic black for this reason. The problem is, I didnt know the car will be available so soon and I haven't think of what color wrap for the car. My initial idea is to get something similar to the Chalk White or China Grey from the Porsche color wheel. I want to see what you think will look good on the M3.

Do they offer invisible?

not clear....but invisible.

I want that.

I don't want anyone to see or hear me commin

Yes it was one whole piece for the back

Thank you! They did it all in one piece. Only lines are the defrosting lines

This is also one of my favorites. My model 3 is red so Im guessing a flat red would look better but yeah

Hey just curious how is the 3M wrap holding up?
