Anybody done this? Might look quite good, I reckon, and still OEM-ish.

Not sure about a wrap near the exhaust, so a pro spray job or plasti-kote might be the right way to go.

Its already been done and I like the look :thumbsup:

I have thought about doing mine, so I would be interested to see what yours looks like if you go ahead since your zed is same colour as mine

Cheers for the link - that looks great!

I remember following your lead on getting monkey pipes, so I guess I owe you one. May have to wait till the Spring though - just done cruise control, MFSW, rims and black grilles back-to-back and should probably take a break. It's an itch that never goes away... :roll::D

Don't think I'll do the front though. Makes the nose look higher.
 
Another mock up from a different angle:

I think it looks great slightly different as I have the aero bumper. But similar effect I think.

That looks great too. :thumbsup: Had to take another look at your leg horror photo, of course, gaargghh!

Plasti Dip is another option.

I rather like the front bumper wrapped as well :)

The back bumper will be on hold until the spring for me as well, but will wait to see how yours looks first . Will you try and wrap it yourself or pay some to do it, just asking as I gather there a few complicated angles to negotiate, so may be not for a beginner like me

+1, thought about the same on the front and then saw pics which confirmed it looks good! Just can't be bothered as other things keep taking up my time. Go for it, peel it off it it looks crap :thumbsup:

Pay someone? Why would I do that when I can have the pleasure of totally stuffing it up myself?! :D

It should be quite easy to get a decent finish with Plasti Dip, so I'll try and do it DIY and put my pennies towards getting my dash lacquered piano black instead.
