I’m sure the wrap shops love getting those calls
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.
If they’re fine with leaving visible seams on the edges, yes. If they’re trying to pull it over peaks with one piece, then no, it’s worse than curves.
That may be, but I doubt many Cybertruck owners would want to make it less clear they own a Cybertruck.
Good thing, too, because that cheap sombitch will rust to all hell if exposed to the elements.
No it doesn’t. It’s made of 300-series stainless steel which is highly resistant to rusting. Left out for the elements long enough it would be among the last vehicles in the world with something still left of the body. It’ll probably even outlive Chevrolet Corvette which is made of fibreglass.
The rust you hear about is not the body that is rusting. It’s iron particles in the air, mostly from brake rotors, called “fallout” that lands on the bare steel causing a chemical reaction which causes it to rust. That iron particle that is, not the stainless steel. It’s surface contamination that can be cleaned off. There’s no damage to the body itself.
