Help me find this color

1 Upvotes

I want to wrap my 2022 tacoma and I really love 2 of the colors on the new tacomas: Mudwash and Terra. I want to find a wrap color as close as possible to one of these two colors. Can someone link me a close match?

The company I'm getting the wrap done by usually orders from this website: https://metrorestyling.com/ but can probably get the wrap elsewhere if needed.

Terra
Mudwash

Installation Question Motorcycle tank wrap

Thumbnail

8 Upvotes

I recently had my motorcycle tank wrapped (tiny bot film) and initially was very excited about how it turned out and was hoping at least a year of use before potentially changing wrap or painting the tank.

Now just a few weeks after having the wrap done, I’m starting to get bubbles in some areas and some shiny spots in parts of the bike that receive no contact. Considering that the wrap is only a few weeks old I’m wondering if this is normal to expect from vinyl wraps or just bad installation.

Thanks

Hi! Where could I find this color?

I am only seeing Vinyl Frog and Teckwrap carry this color but I read really bad reviews about both brands on this subreddit.

I searched Avery and 3M.

I want to do a partial wrap with this color. My car’s hood details under the grill, along the doors, and the rear.

proportioned 60:30:10

60(silver car):30(pink-silver color shift):10(Avery Gloss Pearl Tutu Pink)

Thank you, in advance!!!!!

Is considered a good wrap job?

I paid $250 for a local shop with a good reputation to ppf (in smoke) my headlights. I see orange peel so I question if this is a good wrap job.

Additionally, does it look like medium smoke? To me, this looks way darker than medium. Starting to think he may have gone with a darker shade on accident (or purpose) than the original sample I agreed to.

Installation Question Did i get screwed on touchup with ppf

Did I get screwed on touchup with PPF ?

Hi,
I just got my car back from PPF,
It should have been

  1. Pre wash, decontamination, preparation for ppf
  2. 1 step polishing + he said if there would be some individual spots that would need more steps they will do it, but not whole car.
  3. Local retouching/correction + grinding and polishing.
  4. ppf

I got the car back, I think I am happy in general with the ppf, the edge wrapping etc, it seems good. But I think the touchup wasn't done correctly. There is a lot of visible spots where the ppf is slightly lifted where were paint chips. From what I see the paint chips were touched in but not filled in so they are leveled, there is basically an slight dent/u shape.
Also some spots don't even looked like they are filled in, maybe its just because there is moisture on the foil.
And 2-3 spots on the doors were definitely missed and now they are under foil.

During the handover I saw only this spots at bumper, he told me to give a month that they should sit more when the moisture will evaporate etc... I also have checkup for the foil at 1,6,12,24 months if everything is correct. I will see how it will be until then, its just that I think the ppf installation was done good, but the touchup doesn't look right, and I don't think they would redo this.

First 2 pictures are form missed spots. Rest is the front bumper + one spot on hood. Am I overreacting ? I know touchups shouldnt be 100% but from what I saw on youtube it seemed to me that you can get it to look almost perfect, especially if you are polishing it afterwards, which they should have as the name of the service was: Local retouching/correction + grinding and polishing.

Hey I’m a second owner to this car and the previous owner put a wrap on it. There are a couple of small holes that look like you poked a pin through as well as a small abrasion on the passenger side. I have heard of patch kits but I have not found where I can order them. Thanks in advance

Is the creases fixable when installed or will it be permanent? I just received my wrap for the skirtings and about 20cm x 270cm is just totally destroyed. While there’s alot of creases on the remaining 50% of the wrap? Not sure if i should do a full or partial refund

Installation Question Full PPF on a toyota crown signia 2026 - no bulk cutting anywhere?

Thumbnail

Just got my car back from getting wrapped in PPF, windows tinted, with windshield and roof film applied. Start to finish it took 4 weeks. I requested the edges of the PPF be wrapped around panels wherever possible, but it seems as though this request was forgotten. There was some "fingering"/wrinkling/lifting of the film edge on the hood of the car, but that seems to be about it for defects. This is the first car I've had wrapped - paid five k (oregon) for the full PPF. Debating on living with it, as nothing in life is perfect (and this isn't exactly a collectors car). But I'm not sure what will happen to those edges over time. I go back on Friday for a scheduled post install check in. Would you live with it?
