the wrap is just a paint protection method...okay I'm lying. it's impossible to keep the car clean as much driving through the countryside as I'll do, plus for my generation (sub 30y/o) it's en vogue. the young babes like it better. lol

Sweet ride CJ! You reallly have a nice collection.

Love the matte black wrap...very Blackbird-esque.

tcsracing1 · 06-15-2009, 04:59 PM

i really dig the matte black! and since it is only wrap you can always remove in the future if desired.
Take the stock wheels and roll them in the garage for resale, and go get some killer black wheels to complement the matte black theme.

if i were in the market for CGT this would be it!

(i believe if not mistaken, the formula for wheels is matte black wheels on glossy black cars, and glossy black wheels on matte black cars.....)

yeah that's correct on the gloss/matte crossover. too much matte and it looks ghetto. those wheels look kinda cool, but I'm not really in a rush to bling out my "commuter" lol

Looks good - would only suggest not covering the Porsche creast with the vinyl.
Then again, it looks sick either way!

GaryAZ · 06-19-2009, 03:43 AM

Be careful brother. Gorgeous car but my goodness the reputation it has. I fully realize who I'm addressing. Best wishes.

Looks Stealth. I wonder if it absorbs radar like the special flat finish on the plane?!?!?!? Then it would really worth it.........

schwank · 06-22-2009, 11:10 PM

Looks good... some black wheels would definitely set it off.

Not too often I get to say 'I hate you' and 'couldn't happen to a seemingly nicer guy' in the same post!

In person, the wrap over the crest looks very cool. It was one of my favorite aspects of the wrap.

Good going CJ. I don't come over to this board much, so I am a bit late.

Hey CJ, how about some shots in natural sunlight? I would think the wrap really pops outdoors.

C.J. Ichiban · 06-27-2009, 03:32 PM

too busy driving to take pics! up to 1005 miles on it so far.

MM951 · 06-27-2009, 11:37 PM

Your car is bad-ass.

Rock · 06-28-2009, 09:26 AM

I like the wrap better than the paint. Dont listen to what anyone says, its your car, you earned it, you enjoy it. You do what you want with it.

You chose the perfect color for it though, I can truly say that your car is my favorite CGT now.

Dont get me wrong though, Id love a CGT regardless of the paint scheme. It could have Rosie O'Donnells nutsack painted on it and id gladly take it.
