Talking I haz Jaguar - Soon to be Bright Green!

Hello,


I'm from Birmingham, UK.


First post, thought I'd join one of these forums because my bro (has a GTR) says how he has made some awesome friends of this sort of crap so I thought why not!




I have a 2011 XK-R 5.0 V8 Supercharged, bought 3 months ago, it's currently in black with red callipers but I'm getting it wrapped in a bright grass green colour next week and painting callipers to match...so watch out for it! =]

As for the cost it does depend where you go.
I'm using PW Pro in Nottingham, the same guy who did my brother's car. Highly recommended and I've heard some horror stories with bad wrapping so wouldn't take the risk!
Mine is 1750 + VAT

5 year guarantee on most wraps. Which is pretty good to change the colour or go back to black

The site is :

I've been following the thread in XK/XKR forum.

Don't forget to notify DVLA of the colour change because it's bound to get a lot of attention, especially from the boys in blue!

Lol you don't need to notify them as it's a wrap not a paint job!
