Expensive but good quality - Fastlane
Cheap and actually pretty good quality - RevRC
I personally use Rev wraps. They hold up great and alot of customizing optiongs available.
Fastlane to me is a bit much to pay, $50 for a body wrap. PLEASE DONT BASH ON ME HERE! But its just my opinion. Sure the wraps are great quality, but still not worth that price.
$25 shipped for Rev, can't beat that! Ships fast too!!
Also, as far as shipping, I did however order a custom name sheet from Fastlane and it took F O R E V E R to get here. I finally called after about a month and he said he has been real busy and they would ship out shortly. I got them about a week after the phone call. Thats ridiculous. And that was just a name sheet, I could only imagine a body wrap.
Rev shipped my body wrap out quick, I got it in like 2 weeks!

It doesn't matter if you order a sheet of names or $300 worth of wraps, orders are processed in the order they are received.

Does anyone have a video or some pictures of how well fastlane wrap goes on a body.
I found with the upgrade wrap it did not cover the whole body (You have to paint under for the last color) I did not like that because I dont know where to stick the wrap and where to leave space and it was a big mess.
Before I order a fastlane I would like to know if its the same story.. Got my design and color all picked out looks sweet

How come? I've had 3 upgrade wraps and they're pretty decent. They definitely add some strength to the bodies I think, but any body wrap would do that. The technique I use is a squirt bottle filled with water and few drops of baby shampoo and a hairdryer. Spray the body and backside of the decal, this buys you some time before the decal dries. Then use the hairdryer to heat it up and stretch the decal a little. Squeegee the water out, pop the air bubbles with a needle, and you should be good to go.
But if you're looking for a concourse airbrushed finish, a wrap won't give you that, but it's a 10 from 10 imo.

Hmmm...I put in some time on this subject researching buggy wraps. I was told by quite a few to go to Upgrade...Didnt find anything that I really liked there...Checked out a few more...Nothing there....
Then I checked out Fastlane.I couldnt remember the name of his company but,I did remember a black suv with some nice ass graphics.. I had spoken to Chad at the AMS earlier in the year. I was a die hard paint specialist!lol! Chad's website out runs all others!
I knew what I was getting before it got here.
After many,many emails back and forth with Chad,he got me hooked up with what I was looking for...Personal service,a great selection and custom touches with 2 wings and a body for 50.00....Im satisfied.
Ya know,As busy as Chad is he always returned my emails promptly...and I send em' at weird hours...just as Im doing this at a weird hour.
In my opinion...you cant beat his service or product at any price and I will be a return customer.

Chad and Fastlane...it doesnt get better.
I dont know about anybody else, but I ordered my grafics for my buggy & starter box and had them in hand about 12 working days later. I consider that very good and will be ordering again. The quality/durability is unmatched from other brands that I have seen.

Keep up the great work!

I like Chad at Fastlane and Upgrade.
What put me on to Fastlane was the fact that, it was 100% customizable. He can do pretty much what ever you want. I dont know why people say it takes a long time.... Well Customized work always take alittle longer.... But FASTLANE is well worth the wait.
Upgrade do good work but the last time I looked on their site, it was just pre-made templates that you can pick the color. I hear people say that chad is expensive. Well go get a quote for a painted body with the same design. It will cost over 100 bucks, from a GOOD flawless painter.
