Wrap or Tune?

[MattSin97]

Hey everyone. I've been going back and forth between getting a Tune first or putting on a Wrap. So far I have...

MBRP Street Exhaust
CVF Street Intercooler
K&N air filter
Strut Tower Brace
Steeda front and rear sway bars
Steeda Progressive Springs
Deck lid delete

If I were to get a tune it would be a more conservative tune from PD Tuning, I'm not trying to get every single horse out of the engine, but I definitely want more get up and go.

The wrap would be a full car Satin Black wrap. I always loved the way wrapped cars looked.

What are your thoughts? What would YOU do?

How much extra power you gonna make with that wrap?

Thought so...

Tune.

I think wraps are stupid, just a waste of money. they are a temporary sticker, they will lift, they will get stained and they will eventually pelt and most people regret it.

go for the perm item. wrap imo.......... no.

I think the cars who do it looks cool and all, but I think its a complete waste of money if you have other uses for the $

Some wraps look very good and also protect the paint underneath if done right.
But a professional full car wrap is well over 2,000 versus 3-400 for a tune.
not really in the same price point, unless your doing it yourself

Oh, he reminded ^, a crappy installer, better believe they will be cutting up your paint, not everyone uses knifmeless tape, and not everyone is skilled enough to cut the film on the car with a razor and not hurt the paint, even the skilled ones, accidents happen.

guess what? you will never know about the cut marks til... years later when you pull wrap, and what then? Lol. youre screwed.

id never buy a wrapped car, due to this.

I'd dip it before a wrap.

1/2 wrap it and 1/2 tune it.
























Kidding. Haha.

 

[CJJon]

This is the only wrap I use

Some wraps can make your car look faster and save you money on a tune.

imo, guy above has a point. if you are doing a wrap, do it something crazy and cool. not a standard color change. if you are spending $ atleast do something neat.

I think this is one of the neatest wrapped mustangs ive seen.

In all honesty, I'm more of a low profile kind of guy. I would probably do a satin black or satin dark grey.

Wraps are terrible.

I think it’s clean

I think it’s clean

It's hideous. Heinous.

It's got a certain "Florida meth-head lottery winner" vibe to it.
