Default Decided to wrap the Alpha in matte silver :)

Bought another Alpha this spring and decided to wrap it in matte silver for a cooler look but mostly to protect the paint from scratches and other wear on the paint. What do you guys think. Mate black roof and portion of the hood aswell. Not anything wild and crazy but it is my wifes daily driver to take the kids to school so she has some say in it aswell

Awesome! I wish I could do that to ours, lighter colors are best for H3 in my opinion.

Are those 18" wheels? What size tires do you have on them?

Silver is my favorite color and this looks very good indeed.
Are you happy with the results ?
How does the wrap look up close ?

From your shots it looks very smooth.

I am one of the owners of one of nothern Europes best shops for vehicle wraps so I do this for a living You have to know where to look to see that the car is wrapped. The H3 is fairly easy to wrap for anyone with experience.

Looks good, but why didn't you wrap the grill? I would think that would be an area most in need of protection, plus I like color matched grill..

Im not a big fan of color matched grills but the plan is to make all chrome matte black. The chrome grill is not as sensitive to scratches from branches etc as the paint.
