the cyber truck has to be the easiest vehicle to wrap

  Wraps are designed to bond to paint or clear coat.

  I’m not sure how easy it is to bond to straight steel, but that makes it different than every other car, and while every cybertruck needs a wrap for protection, most don’t and they’re aren’t many to begin with.

  I’d doubt any business has done more than 5, really more than 1.

  So it’s essentially a one off and those are almost always a huge hassle regardless of industry.

  Not to mention the client is someone dumb enough to buy one, so they’re probably not easy to deal with

  I have seen 2 vinyl wrapped cybertrucks while driving around Los Angeles, so I know it’s being done.

    They honestly look better painted/wrapped. I’m becoming more and more certain Elon went with stainless steel just to trick people into buying an unpainted car.

    Just the standard Trump 2024, or tied-up Biden/Harris on the tailgate?

      The ones I saw were a single color, one of them was all black vinyl.

  That may be, but I doubt many Cybertruck owners would want to make it less clear they own a Cybertruck.

    Honestly I think I’ve seen more wrapped cybertrucks than non wrapped ones.

    I don’t think any amount of vinyl wrap can make it look less like a Cybertruck.

  Except for the losing fingers part maybe?

    You have to use the flaw as a strength, the extra material on the sheet can be removed with the edges of a panel. The panel edges are like the tear blade on a tinfoil box.

  Sure, I mean shrink wrap is cheap. It’s even funnier when you slap some Vaseline on there afterwards.
