    Default Possible Stealth Coating?

    I realize this stuff is intended purely as a styling accessory, but perhaps there are some stealth properties to it as well? Perhaps any inherent stealth properties could be enhances by the application of a Veil-like substance?

    Cool stuff! I'm afraid to ask what it costs.

    I bet that it very definitely improves your lidar signature though.

    Under 5k for most cars, just vinyl wraps. The whimps need too man up and paint the cars!

    A matte black wrap was the first thing I thought of when vehicle wraps began to become popular but until now I never bothered to follow up on it. I just called the Florida number for Skinzwraps and the person who answered the phone couldn't give me even a ballpark estimate on how much it costs to wrap an average sized sedan. She wanted all kinds of info from me so that someone could call me back, I declined and told her I'd call again later.

    Who knows if subsequent calls will yield anything different. I'll keep you all abreast (haha) of whatever I may learn.

    If it were somehow possible to impregnate or engrave (or whatever the meaningful characteristic of a Laser Shield plate cover is) a matte black wrap to be one giant Laser Shield, that would be pretty awesome...

    all of those cars look amazing, cept for the cts

    i wonder if there is a market out there for radar defelectant raps, because I brought my car down to a shop to get a quote on a wrap and it was 3900, extremly expensive and it wouldnt have even looked half as good as this flat black wrap

    Ohhh, Agreed! Wonder why? Maybe the stock wheels?

    Interesting idea, I'd be very interested to hear what a ball park price would be for a 2 door coupe.
