Princey are you drunk?
Do not do that. Spend it on an exhaust and getting even more noise out the V8.

Do I wrap my car?

Now that wouldn't be reversible though would it.
Surely if it makes the car look as fantastic as you think it doesn't need to be reversible?
.That's honest to god my logic when it comes to wrapping (especially in a dodgy colour).
Not quite as absurd as it first might appear.no lie i once saw a bloke glossing an old mini with a roller by the side of the road in lower addiscombe road
I can't remember who but someone posted a project on here where the whole car had been repainted with a brush/roller then wet sanded to a perfect finish!
Why bother protecting the paint for a future owner with an expensive wrap.
Might as well enjoy it yourself rather than worry about what it might look like 3 years down the line.
Give it a regular wash/wax/detail y0 and just drive it!

Don't! It's a waste of money. Leave it as is.. in that lovely red colour.

Keep it red, spend the money on performance mods or improving the stereo or a holiday or something....not a fan of most cars in matt black and don't think the Monaro suits it at all.

matt black is so played out.
I vote no.

Looks turd, but then so do most red cars, hmm...

Wrapping is for the likes of Stobart who don't want to spend a fortune on flash paint schemes (as they used to) and after 3 years can peel off the wrap for a white truck thats easily sold on the used market.
I love how they wrap them though.....

We are in the UK, so they are manifolds
No you dont wrap your car....
You drive it
Wrap the manifolds
Manifold and exhaust system over that wrap.
I've seen some good wraps but matt black is not one of them. It can look amazing but on the majority of cars it does look stupid, Blackboard is a great comparison!

Just because you like it, doesn't mean others will hence anything permanent is going to make resale impossible.
Plus wrapping is cheaper than a decent respray.

That looks dreadful

"Played out" is exactly what I was thinking when I read the OP.
Plus it only suits certain cars. Yours isn't one of them.
Which is all very well because it looks awesome in red

I quite like it in matt black, HOWEVER, red looks much better on yours, leave it as it is!
