[QUOTE="ajstar89, post: 692594, member: 10558"] Why paint a new raptor instead of buying it that way? Easy... Ford paint jobs suck, and they don't offer many unique options. Not that it's all their fault, it's an assembly line and they gotta make a profit. So if you want a color that different than every other f-150 that won't oxidize after 6 years, go to the pros and get it done right. Why wrap vs paint a raptor? price... It's way cheaper...usually. Also if you have ever been off roading or raced anything you understand the fact that rubbing and scratches are inevitable. If I off road without a wrap and scratch my door, it sucks. I can only fix it by repainting and buffing it out and trying to color match the rest of the panel. Now if my truck is wrapped, I peel the remaining wrap on that panel off and reapply. It's very easy and the truck is looking new again. [/QUOTE]
