Yes, keep us posted. I've been entertaining the idea of wrapping my silver XK in flat or satin black.

+1 - I've always been tempted to wrap mine in lime green, pearl orange or yellow.

The lime-green Kermit is the 2009 'Goodwood Special', the prototype for the XKR 75 and the R-S.

A friend of mine got this done to his Aston, so you will end up with a similar look, you'll get noticed, that's for sure

I looked so long for pictures of other bright XKRs and never found any decent ones! the Green one is too pale for me lol I actually cannot wait. The orange one does look good but the extras make it look a bit ridiculous haha.

Will definitely put some pics up of it in a field (you'll have to find it!)

This IMO looks a better green than you have picked, just an idea.

I'm looking forward to the result. Are you wrapping the car yourself?

Looks to be a very high quality wrap. Daring color but, came out very well. Thumbs up!

Excellent work, now i think a bit of posing is in order
One thing for me , your black wheels look a bit lost in the color, as you have a daring color, if it was me i would leave the wheels black but add a feature to match, something like the picture. Just a thought, would give the wheels a bit of matching look and lift.
