Is it possible to get your order with no paint and just primer? Never heard anyone doing this, so I figured I'd ask a larger group
I think I'm going to get OJ white and get a satin army green wrap. Black is a great color for almost any vehicle but it shows every single spec of dirt and it gets hot in the sun.

Black is better for a 4x4 that has a removable top.
You will never get the roll bar wrap to last more than one or two top removals.
It wouldn't last a week with the bungee cords from a bikini top or UV sunshade rubbing on it either.
The exception would be if you went with a wrap color that looks good with a white top and white bikini/sunshade.

Not really familiar with wraps. For instance, how long can you keep a wrap on and then remove it safely concerning the paint below?

I figure $3,000 to $5,000 to wrap ( guessing) , how much to "unwrap"?

I'd be all about wrapping in a green or maybe a two tone...

Unwrap is free because you can do it yourself. You just peel it off.

I was in Team Paint before I started reading this, now I'm torn

Good thing though is the shop next door has a paintbooth and besides repairs, builds muscle cars

I'm feeling lazy, so here's just images I found of their work on Google (and apparently, a second site)

I have a friend that wraps vehicles. I helped him wrap a truck in mat white and it looks showroom. I will buy a white Bronco and wrap it in mat green.
He also charges around $2500.

I’m only a fan of painting if its done right(remove engine/interior for full color change). If your not gonna do that then wrap it

Absolutely. I've done hundreds of jobs. Spraying a matte clear is a PITA. I love the look, but it doesn't apply as well, can't nib and buff any trash, and it is super hard to keep "wet" while applying it so you don't get fallout overspray on the areas you started with.
Now I've never sprayed any ultra high-end matte clears, but the mid range stuff is more difficult, and the cheap stuff I wouldn't spray on anything, ever.
