Mineral grey wrap

BillNguyen · 08-31-2022, 10:20 PM

Hey there
I'm looking for a vinyl wrap that is as close as possible to the mineral grey color. I'm trying to wrap my front reflector and see how it looks if it looks bad than I'll probably go with the ind painted reflector. Also, does anyone have a suggestion for a spoiler for the f83 something that is not too high kick.

I used the IND painted reflectors - easy to install, and pretty sure you'd never find a perfect match or pay the same amount for the minimum amount of wrap you'd have to buy. You could get a can of matching paint and mask and paint your own reflectors. There are a few suppliers of OEM BMW paint colors matched to your paint code - about $20 a can, plus a few more for some clearcoat.

I agree with the response - just go with the IND thing. Easier and the cost difference should be negligible. Go to a local tint/wrap shop and get an estimate - that should end the debate.

You'll never come close to wrapping a factory metallic color. Just order the pre painted ones.
They're what, like 120 bucks?
Personally, I think it makes the front bumper look like a plug in hybrid and I just rock the amber...
