Have my A3 currently wrapped metallic blue but getting a full respray soon. It's booked but I need a hand with a colour!

Love McLarens Valcano orange but obviously it's McLaren and general public don't have access to it but can always be made up! VW Cooper orange is a good shout too!

Let me know what you think

Lexus do a nice orange for the rcf called lava orange

Just googled the mclaren colours that's almost like a candy orange . Can get candy effect paints that would look similar

This is the candy orange painted looks fairly similar

What about another wrap in one of the suggested orangey colours? Repainting in a completely different colour could devalue your car should you sell it eventually.

Just curious, how much is the job costing?
I've been thinking about getting it done.

Depends on the condition of the car and whether you want just the outside doing or inside panels ,shuts etc outside only probably between 2-2.5 depending on the colour

That's the least of my worries. it needs painted anyway. I think the wide arches will devaule it even more. I hate wrap.
