So much nicer not to have to worry every time I pass a sand truck in Colorado mtns, and filling every chip after every trip. Still thinking about doing lights, but think the chrome pops nicely from the matte black.

If you dont mind me asking, how long did the wrapper take to wrap the entire car, and how much was the final cost.

You should wrap the plastic now to complete the look

I will not give in to peer pressure....lol.

I bought an Allroad for many reasons, but one is I've always loved the two-tone look. Otherwise I would have bought an A6 Avant. I'm keeping it pure Allroad style for now, and I'm sticking too it. I think it looks sharp, and distinctly different with the two-tone.

Took about 20+ hours....ouch. Car wraps are easier when they have graphics all-over, where the bubbles, wrinkles, etc can hide. But nothing hides on matte black, so a lot more attention was put here. Undefined cost.

You can bring it to a car wrap company/sign company near you, or DIY from stickercity.com
