it's time for show-off Sunday, where everyone has a chance to show off their
own car, and here's this week's winner,
what's going on guys I'm Zack, this is a video for the Scotty Kilmer channel,
I've seen a video on there about a week, two weeks ago maybe, Plasti Dip and I used to
use plastidip a lot it's a great product, I actually have it on the
wheels right now, but I figured I'd do a quick show off of what a good vinyl wrap
could look like, this vinyl wraps been on the car for a while now, it does have its
issues, I usually switch it up a lot, I do a small vinyl wrap
business that we're currently looking to get another garage, and get
everything situated there, but we still do business and whatnot, we just try to
tell everybody you know a lot of people get the misconception about vinyl wraps,
and you know that it's bad, it's you know different things like that, and so I wanted
to make a quick video of the possibilities of it, I changed my vinyl
wrap usually every four months I would say, and I change it like this and
what not, just for more or less getting the name out, so the car is very well
known, I had it chrome gold before this which looked pretty cool as well,
and this was just more or less one for this winter it's just something to
protect the paint, because it does protect the paint, vinyl wraps are
really good for protecting paint, causing less wear on the car really and
you could get good looks out of it, so another thing a lot of people don't
think you could wash these in a car wash, I just got it off the car wash actually,
you know it usually has no effect to it, you could see a lot of like little
hairline scratches, that is something that you'll experience with any chromes
or something of this nature, normal vinyl like here's carbon-fiber hood for
instance, this is wrapped in carbon fiber, and this has actually been on here for
maybe two years, it holds up real good,
other things like this, not as good, it depends where, this is like I said this
has been on all winter, this is my daily car, so a little issue that's starting to
come up right there where it's peeling up, where we had the knifeless tape
go across it's starting to come up a little bit, but it's whatever, this like I
said, it doesn't last forever, the materials like this in chrome usually
aren't going to last as long, this has been driven through snow and probably 20,000
miles since I put the vinyl on it, it's actually been used a lot, so there's
definitely some signs of ware, but for the most part nothing really wrong with the
vehicle itself, so what can you do, a lot of the I don't know if you can see
any now, but a lot of these vehicles that you see
that have pictures and whatnot, it's all vinyl just like this, so you can do that
or you could do any colors and it's very cheap to do, there's a lot of shops that
will overcharge and whatnot, but you figure something if I want to do this
white, we would usually charge about a grand, maybe a little less depending on
the car, what material you want to go with, 3m has some good ones, Avery, this is
actually a vivid concept material here, that I decided to go with and just try
it, like I said I don't really use them on too long, I kind of like the clean look,
you know your matte colors and whatnot, but it's something,
so you get that a lot with the wraps like this, where a lot of people like to
come take a look at it they never seen anything like it, so yeah we're getting
ready to rip this off, we had a problem with the back trunk we had this ordered
and I did my front bumper and the fenders with it, well got into a little
bit of a fender bender I guess you would say, and the front bumper needed to be
replaced it, was already wrapped, it was a fresh wrap, so I had to use that material
then I didn't end up having enough for the trunk, and it's the concept wrap so
they were out of stock and so I never really got to that, I was going to actually
just replace the trunk with a carbon fiber one, but sometimes like in the
shade like this it really doesn't have much of a color, it's it's like a gray
wrap, this is known as black holographic by the way, they make a silver
holographic version, my buddy actually put it on his BMW i8, so we're kind of
matching there, yeah if you guys have any questions hit me up on Instagram this
actually is an old tag, I just realized I have to take that off but, my Instagram is
E92_ZACH, you'll see fresh pictures of the car all the time you
know, like I said we're getting rid of this wrap, we're going to be putting a
new one on, not too sure what I'm going to go with, I really like battleship gray
it's a nice 3m wrap, so yeah if you want to stay updated on some pictures
definitely check it out, I do have a YouTube channel I post some vinyl
wrapping videos on, that's Zach Caves, yeah some other quick things
about the car, what we're doing to it, what's been done, we got a new set of
wheels for it, so those are coming on right after we get rid of all the snow
and whatnot, potholes are horrible right now, new wheels definitely, I'll
show under the hood, this is a BMW 335i coupe, it's the e92 chassis, more or less
known for the tunability, it's a twin turbo inline six stock,
a little bit dirty, oh yeah it is dirty, I really can't do much in the wintertime,
it's too cold out here, but yeah we got the dual cone intake, catless downpipe
down there, upgraded intercooler, we actually are looking to do a single
turbo conversion too, so we'll have to relocate that over there, do a couple
other things, get rid of the old boost solenoids, single turbo is the way to go
with these, upgraded twins are also an option, but you know stock from the
factory they make 300 to the wheels, 1,500 bucks in bolt ons, you're making
450, 500 horsepower, and honestly I run 85 on this too, that jb4 tune allows an e85
mix on the stock fuel pump and whatnot, it's a mix, it's definitely recommended
to get port injection and upgraded fuel pumps, which I'll be doing with the turbo
upgrade, but yeah it's a quick overview of the car, that's about it, see you guys
later, well that was this week's video and
