Equinox Posted June 5, 2017 Author Share Posted June 5, 2017 So I was out at Rockingham this weekend for GTi International. Managed to book a full afternoon of track time on the National circuit so got about 7x 30min sessions. Was a brilliant day out and the weather held up really well. Car performed well but does need some minor tweaks to the rear end to compensate the front aero. Going to get a big GT cup car style wing made up as I was finding turn in brilliant but felt it was causing the rear end to lift and step out on tight bends at slower speeds. Higher speeds everything felt very planted. Anyway a few pictures from the track and I will link a cockpit video when I get home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Equinox Posted June 26, 2017 Author Share Posted June 26, 2017 So the day is finally here and the car has been dropped off for the full wrap this week. Literally going to be such a long and painful week without it and having to wait to see the finished result! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Equinox Posted June 29, 2017 Author Popular Post Share Posted June 29, 2017 Had a teaser photo through today. Been told that photo's don't do the colour/depth any justice which I can vouch for as I have seen the wrap in person before it was applied. It has a much more metallic 'flick' in person under sunlight. Literally can't wait to get it back and everything put back on it!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Equinox Posted July 3, 2017 Author Popular Post Share Posted July 3, 2017 So its finally happened. Just picked the car up from being wrapped and the colour just looks a millions times better in person. Still have to refit a fair few bits now before its complete again but I think it looks epic. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMMMalex Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Looks great! Hard to believe that is not paint. Wraps have come such a long way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Founder Beanoir™ Posted July 3, 2017 Founder Share Posted July 3, 2017 Smoking!!! I have a wrap planned for the new project actually. I always wonder what happens with the door shuts, do they wrap that too? or do you see original colour anywhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good wrapping company will always wrap all door/bonnet/boot shuts, but you get what you pay for, as with most things. Most places will keep your car for a week to strip it down, wrap and then rebuild. DubCustoms in Basildon Essex has a extremely good reputation, they aren't cheap, but they do some fantastic work.

PMGPete Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Love that! Could you point me to where I can get that front splitter and the side skirts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Equinox Posted July 5, 2017 Author Share Posted July 5, 2017 Thanks all I am really pleased with how it has come out! Splitter is by Joe Toth in Canada. Currently made from fibreglass however I am in the process of producing a similar style splitter in abs plastic. 3D scan of the car has taken place and the cad has been designed I'm just waiting on a second scan to be carried out so I know that the part is 100% accurate to the car before a tool gets made. Side skirts are by Xclusive Customz in Sheffield 12 hours ago, PMGPete said: Love that!

Because black is a really forgiving colour when it comes to wrapping I deemed it not necessary. Only time you would tell is if you left the doors open or the boot. They kept the car just over a week and stripped off what they needed to do before wrapping it. Took a little while longer as he had trouble taking the door handles and mirrors apart as I wanted to keep parts of each black and some purple which caused some more hassle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
