A proud owner of a black BMW 335i decided that he wanted to preserve his car well and wanted it to look exactly as it did when it was originally bought, so what should he do? Just drive carefully?
We all have this on our mind when at some point we buy a new car, however, I don’t think many would go into such an extreme as to do what this particular owner did.
Originally black, the owner of this BMW decided to wrap up his car using 3M wrap and as a result his black 335i became white… Because 3M wraps are available in a whole range of colours these days, the tape itself is thick enough to protect the paint from minor chips and nicks and it can be left adhered to the surface for three or four years without damage! This is pretty clever and I believe if he does decided to sell this car, the new owner will find it quite interesting ‘unwrapping’ this car, check out some pics in the gallery…

Got think if the guy is really vain or not much going on in his life to go to these extremes for a BMW!
Why because you drive a HONDA please….
Yes, I drive a Honda.
That is a great idea, why didn’t i think of that…clever GOOD JOB
Yeah, the finish is great and your original paintwork is preserved AND you can choose another colour for your car, it’s a great idea!

I like it, thats what always puts me off about buying a white car, but if you can maintain it, it looks great.
