Hey guys,
I’ve had my 08 E for 7 years now and recently had to do some body work since it had been hit while it was parked a couple of times. I’ve been using the same collision repair shop for all my cars over the years so they let me use the shop for a little project. Originally, it was maroon with the black LX fenders. But I had considered doing a LineX wrap on it for a while but when it came down to it, they quoted me $3800. So I took matters into my own hands and Raptor lined it. It was only $400 in materials and 6 hours of Labor. And I think it turned out really well. Anyone looking to repaint their E should look into this. It’s nearly scratch and dent proof now and I couldn’t be happier! Let me know what y’all think!

Looks great man!

Does it get considerably hotter sitting in all black?
