Wrap advice

[heyskull]

I am on with wrapping this vehicle.
Just need some advice as the vehicle is already black.
Also the gold is all printed with fades.
I did do one similar a while back and pieced it all in with contour cut wrap, but in places it distorted when it was applied into some of the recesses.

Thanks

In my shop we would print/cut this.

Yes it will distort in channels. It is going to happen either way….

With the base already black, I think this would work and keep the distortion on the graphics to a minimum:

Since your base is already black and most of the distortion is in the fades and gold graphics, you might have a smoother time printing the gold with slight bleed and trimming where needed instead of trying to fully panel it in contour cuts. If your last wrap distorted in the recesses, maybe consider overlaminating with a high-stretch film or using knifeless tape to edge around trouble zones and get cleaner laydowns.

How does the wrap on the driver's side end on the rear view?

Word of advise for 95% of your wrap designs.

Hood, sides and back are separate from each other. In the case above, designer should create a clipping mask for the back doors and just make the rest black.

You can have things line up from side to back to front but it does take some planning.
