Correct me if I'm wrong but based on where the picture was taken it seems as though vinyl is being installed on the car yet it also looks like paint. Which one is it?

Not sure what a salvage title is? Maybe something US-specific? I am a Swede living in Sweden...

The car is being wrapped, but it looks very "paint-like". It´s a metallic wrap and the colour changes with the light. This guy did his 335 with the same wrap: Azure Metallic 335 scroll down and u will see the colour "at night".

Any close ups of the blue if it is indeed vinyl? Looks really good.

Ohh yes, sorry... Thought they were referring to the title of the car in some way.

Wasn´t intending to have an unclear title for the thread, but seems it´s uneditable? Feel free to change it if you can as a moderator.

That looks great. If you really want to go crazy, leave some body panels in black

The change in color looks really good. It really did look like a paint job, which is all the more impressive that it isn't. Looking forward to the final product!

Very interested to seeing the result but from that angle it looks like a slightly more pearl-ish version of Ultrasonic Blue? Hopefully it looks more different than that once the whole car's done.
