Vinyl Wrap Question
I have a quick question for those of you with experience with vinyl wrap. Does the wrap cover a few small dents in the car or will it contour to the dents and look like shit?

It will show any imperfections that are currently there now. You can use a carbon fiber wrap that will somewhat camoflage the area buy it will still be there. The vinyl is very thin... I have some scrap carbon vinyl pm me if youd like a piece to try it out and see what it looks like. No charge of course.
I had a vinyl shop for a while but closed it because everyone wants wraps but nobody wants to pay for one. A good wrap isnt cheap by any means.

Yeah, hail damage sucks. Your insurance does not cover that?

It does if you have comprehensive coverage. Alot of peoples deductables are higher than the repair costs though...

Body shop if your keeping the car... Shady tent if your planning on selling it. They will do a shit job and it will shrink and show in time. I have worked in autobody at a dealership, They like to use those shady tents on the used cars... Or you could take that check, forget it ever happened and drive it!
