I think getting it wrapped is a good idea, keeps it original & you get a colour change.
Please add another vote box.
What colour are you thinking of ?
I like Black Sapphire, I would keep it that colour & put silver Alpina stripes on.
Cheers

Not keen on wrap for a couple of reasons.
1. The car needs a repaint, and I wouldn't get that done only to cover it.
2. Wrap just doesn't cut it on finish.

I think Alpina Green looks fantastic on a B10. And knowing Asim, it will be better than "from the factory" when finished. So get it done!

As seen on Wheeler Dealers 'spraywrap' it
For those that do not know (unless I have missed it) what is the original colour of your car

Can’t argue with that

Black Sapphire with silver decal kit. Looks amazing.

Ok that makes sense. Well for me, a black car is a common colour and I am glad my ALPINAs do stand out or some say different.
I have to rewatch that Wheeler Dealer episode again but spraywrap is cheaper than wrap and will cut it on the finish. The only problem is, I have not seen spraywrap in the flesh therefore I cannot say if it will definitely cut it on the finish just from what I recall from Wheeler Dealers
