Default Vinyl Wrapped Cobra!

Heard about it, read about it, and just yesterday finnaly saw it on Horsepower TV on the spike channel.

They had an old chavy nova that they wrapped in a custom vinyl from some company down in Texas. The graphics on the vinyl were pretty damn elaborite but they said it ran them about $4500 to do the entire car body in vinyl.

It came out looking pretty damn cherry I thought, so it did not take long to imagine my unpainted Cobra out in the garage done up in a custom vinyl wrap.

They say the vinyl is laminated in some special way and they say it should be good for about 8 years or so.

So the question is.....

Has anyone ever done this to a Cobra before in any way?

Am I really the first one ever to think of this on a Cobra?


Just curious.....

I don't know about other areas, but just about every real estate person around here has their veheicle wrapped. A buddy of mine also has his sprint car wrapped as well.
