Gone to Novox to fix up carbon wrapping yesterday and workmanship is excellent by being meticulous in every details, using 3M wrapping but most importantly the price is very competitive by being cheaper than all vendors I had asked around unless compare to Malaysia but Malaysia quote is slightly cheaper and not worthwhile to make a further trip to there (not safe for car owners). The offer received is cheap and the boss throw in free door pillars wrapping FOC. Good deal overall.

With proper care, it should last about 3 to 5 years.

Why dont take 2 can of matt black spray to spray on it ? cost $7/= only lor

 

Spray-painting is cheaper but when you want to sell your vehicle, you will need to pay for a re-paint or lose value.

Stickers are simple, just remove it as and when you got tired of it.

just to get advise. will wrapping help to resist scratches? says, ppl using key to scratch your car door or so.

 

Yes, car wraps can resist scratches but it is not anti-scratch. Meaning, it is just an additional protection above your paint. People using keys to scratch cars will probably scratch and realise that the wrap film has peeled off. With an intent to scratch, he will probably put in additional effort to scratch the paint underneath the peeled wrap film.

 

However if you wrap your car with stone-chip protection film (very thick film, but also expensive), people who has intent to scratch cars will have to put in alot of effort (again, it has a very high resistant to scratches but not anti-scratch).
