Just wanted to say, if there are any people on here who wrap cars for a living: I have newfound respect for what you do.
Decided to tofu wrap my corolla wagon because I'm a massive faggot. Felt good to do the work myself, but it's so easy to fuck up. I can't imagine doing it for a perfectionist customer who wouldn't accept a single flaw.
Anyways, I appreciate what you do.
>>15727730
Youre my new hero
>>15727730
imagine working on fire supression systems for buildings and access control systems for a pissy paranoid customer located in the ghetto
>>15727730
Your Corolla is an unironic 10/10
>>15727766
at least neglect on your part might lead to their death :) look on the bright side
>>15727785
thanks senpai, I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.
paid 500 dollars for the car btw.
and this is why dip is a thing
profesionally wraps cost a boatload in labor because the dudes who do it have trained for a long time to do it well
>>15727730
I'm happy that someone finally did this
I dig your car fellow wagonbro
>>15727730
>FWD
>>15728590
Shut up
Corolla is GOAT
>>15727730
Can confirm that wrapping is a bitch.
When I worked at my old shop, the owner got a Raptor and decided that we'd wrap it ourselves to save money. It took us like a fucking week to finish the whole thing and it still came out mediocre. It was some of the most grueling, backbreaking labor I've ever done, too.
The worst part is that we basically lost money, too. We could've made twice the cost of a pro wrap job if we'd been open and making money instead of fucking around doing it ourselves.

as you can see in my picture, I only did the smallest section of the bottom of the car, however I spent about half an hour painstakingly popping every airbubble I'd left and trying to massage out every crease.
>>15728578
ayyyy
imo "boxxy" earlier corolla wagons and smooth ones like my 96 look equally good. I just think they've never gotten the bodylines wrong for the wagons.
>passed up on a 95 Corrola wagon that was clean and had a new motor in it with 50k miles for 1500$.
Did I fuck up?
>>15728850
only if you're autistic enough to love these slow, cheap, slightly rare shitboxes like me
>>15728850
It really is a great car. luckily I got a wagon with a 5 speed, which is a really great combo. lots of utility as well, i fit a matress in the back once.
I'm going to drive it into the ground, and then try to find another one.
>>15727801
Do you live in or near Woodbridge VA?
>>15728986
I'm in Richmond.
>>15728993
Same, I saw an ae102 wagon for sale for $500 in Autotrader, thought you bought it
>>15728962
I love cheap reliable cars and I want a wagon for that cargo space. So yeah.
>>15729021
haha nah, got it a few years ago. It was a kind uncle's offer to a poor highschool grad kind of deal. The type of deal I'll never find again :'(
>>15729029
in addition to the initial d livery, i also have a hardwood floor in the back of mine. makes for a great tailgating car with the hatch open
>>15729036
>tfw no beater sleeper project to throw money at
>tfw no AE102 Corolla Wagon GT4 w/ ST205 diff & tran
>tfw none of the above with Redtop BEAMS built for boost and tuned to 450whp
>>15729060

dream car.
>>15729079
wait nevermind about the 3s. must've just been a fantastic swap. still, i'd buy for looks alone
>>15729079
But does it have AWD?
>>15729095
have you been keeping up with bad obsession motorsport's "project binky" on youtube?
look it up if not, it'd be your cup of tea
>>15729102
>GT4 Mini Cooper
That's insanity, it would literally be a 4WD roller skate
>>15727730
Nice wagon meng.
>>15727730
Stupid weaboo
>>15729253
God damn fur feggit
>>15729261
At least I'm not displaying my furfaggotry on my fucking car this shit is god damn cringe
>>15729267

>>15729267

>>15729331
I'm nonbinary pansexual you cis SCUM!!!!
>furfaggot and dragonfucker sperging about who is worth less
kek
>>15729339
Ayy me too let's stop fighting, I'm a dog btw so are you zoophile as well?
It's trendy right now.
>>15729356
nah my autism hasn't progressed to that point yet. maybe i'll wrap my car with fur when it does.
>>15729354
>anon being a sperg
shits like 2011 in here
>>15729374
stay triggered, subhuman
>>15729354
its like throwing a PB&J between two homeless dudes and watching them fight to the death
what exactly are you going to about it, skunkfucker?
>>15729267
>it's a "wat has never interacted with anyone but his grumpy republican dad that he also lives with" empisode
nobody in the 4chan age group cares except cringy autists like you
on the other hand, everyone hates furfags. everyone. you are rightfully seen as a gang of dog rapists, pedophiles, and the most degenerate homosexuals. the average "weeaboo" in the news is running a successful startup. the average furfag in the news is comitting public indecency or some other horrid act.
allowing furfags to live: not even once
>>15729042
>i also have a hardwood floor in the back of mine
i must see a picture of this.
>>15729079
I'm pretty sure those have silvertop 4A-GEs - either that or blacktop. See heaps of them chilling in New Zealand.
How much does it cost to wrap that? I want to get it done when my 7AGE project's done to annoy more people
>>15729547
Here it is. First mod I ever did to car. Laid out hardwood panels and jigsawed them to shape using carpet as template.
>>15730287
If that's your car in pic, I guess you'd need to be wrapping most of it white first, so expensive. I bought a shitload of cheap black vinyl for about 35 shipped on eBay, which was more than enough to do the bottom section you see in my photo. Sticker was also around 30 on eBay
In case anyone's interested, here's some photos of the bumper I'm doing for the corolla. I'm decopaging it with initial d manga because again, I'm a massive faggot

>>15730356
>>15730360
>>15730340
That's fucking terrific
>>15730352
>because again, I'm a massive faggot
This one is self-aware...
>>15730379
It's rull comfortable too. I oil it every once in a while that's all it needs
>>15730401
U srs?
>>15730401
You're still here? Lol
>>15727730
Yota wagon time?
