But just before wrapping we resprayed it from Black Sapphire to a custom silver pearl.
So when my wife is tired of the red after 2-3 years I just strip it back to a decent silver (I think silver suits the X5 extremely well - even though I hate silver cars).

Well... and since we sprayed the car, we also wrapped it having a nearly complete naked body (body trim removed, windows removed, etc), so it was kinda a bit easier to wrap, but a lot of assembly work still to be done...
oh wow, what a job! is this professionally done or you the professional?

I think this doesn't fit in to "Pointless photos" category to be honest, you better create separate thread, I'm sure its gonna be very popular
