peeled the wrap off and the paint is f*cked ! whoever wrapped it and prepped it was  a complete retard pics below ...



as you can see the prep of the front end "respray" he had was that bad that the paint is peeling off easier than the wrap did lol !

this means full respray though in a new colour !

So please help , thinking Genuine Fahrenheit orange ? ibis white ? something saleable for when im bored of it ! post pics below or ideas of colours ??

Sorry to hear that happening, if I was going for a respray I redo it in Candy White. They seem to be going for crazy money on the second hand market which is good news if you want to part it in the future.

That's crazy what's happened to paint.

Sorry to hear/see that mate. Is the bonnet/arch the worst? Or all car like it.

Maybe just a front end respray in Tornado Red? Then all door shuts/under bonnet matching. If I ever was to do a colour change would have to be glass, door, engine out job. Big money tho.

I am mad on detailing mate , having a car that was covered in a sticker was not the way forward lol !

and to everyone elses responce ! yes i was gutted , did passenger side first and it was like a new car underneath ! then every where else was fooked !!

agree with the candy white comment they sell for about 1k more than any other colour !

and i wouldnt paint it silver if im splashing out for a complete colour change ! they are cheap enough to buy in that colour

The colour change ive been quoted on includes all door shuts , glass out etc just not the bay ! however he said he will paint the bits you can see if i do the prep !

Either spray the car for you or get the front end resprayed..... if you want it orange go for orange.

Colour coded side skirts and spoiler would look a lot better
