Vehicle wraps are becoming more popular and with good reason. From cost savings to design options and personalization to easy maintenance, wrapping in one of the standard, vinyl films seems the logical choice over painting.
Occasionally, though, you may come across those who get more creative in their wrap choices.
Take, for instance, this furry FIAT 500 recently spotted in Argentina.

- Door dings
- Minor scratches (major ones too, for that matter)
- Paint fade
- Rock chips
