Have you ever wondered how aftermarket companies apply chrome wrap to cars? Well, if you haven’t seen it done before, now is your chance to find out, as UK’s Creative FX firm has shared a “how it’s made” video showing the entire operation of wrapping a VW Golf Mk7 in chrome foil.
Although the car, supplied by a UK dealer, is not the most popular choice for chrome wrapping, watching the Golf being transformed from a boring hatchback into a very shiny boring hatchback is quite interesting. Extreme attention to detail, firm hands and patience, are necessary to fit the foil perfectly onto the car’s bodywork.
Unfortunately, for those of you interested in such a modification, we don’t get to find from the video how many hours the operation took and how much it cost. But maybe that’s for the better, because I’d like to believe you’re not seriously considering it…
