Hi everyone have just bought a beautiful black RCZ with the silver roof trim, i have seen a few posts on here about having them carbon wrapped. Has anyone had them done in Gloss Black or Chrome wrap? Am undecided what to have and dont like the dull silver look?

Thanks in advance guys

Have you tried to clean your arches as I have previously posted on the best results...
I did have the wife's RCZ arches that had faded these where black arches so I removed them and had them spayed piano black to match the roof excellent job and was £125 each side and great job...

Yes I have used auto glym bumper gel and after you have washed your RCZ and dry it then rub this on your arches no hard rubbing then buff off with a clean micro towel and hay presto no water marks and you can see a fantastic transformation as many RCZers on here can confirm this too..... Hope this helps you out..

Hi, I have a 65 plate white type r and have had them black gloss wrapped, cost around £200. Best money spent, as we all know the roof bars weather a bit. Can fwd a pic if you prefer.

Black wrapping is the way to go, I had mine completed 12 months ago and still as good as new, no issues.20210531_110240.jpg

Here is a RCZ from one of the owners who went to pug fest... Before and after was a quick demo and the owner was well impressed to say the least IMG-20220717-WA0015.jpgIMG-20220717-WA0012.jpgIMG-20220717-WA0014.jpgIMG-20220717-WA0013.jpgIMG-20220717-WA0011.jpgIMG-20220717-WA0010.jpgIMG-20220717-WA0008.jpgIMG-20220717-WA0009.jpgwhat do you RCZers think 🤔

Looks good. How long does it stay like that? Currently, my arches look similar to that white RCZ. I'm considering repainting them in black matte.

The last post I put above took less than ten minutes and it was before and after on the white RCZ... That was the first time of doing it.... If you washed your car and did this to the arches lasts longer and longer and for under a tenner.... When you wash your car and polish it do this as well and your RCZ will look stunning...
As always...
