A few questions:

1: Would it be possible to cover the entire vehicle (roof, doors, pillars everything).
2: What would is cost?
May the road be long.. and dirty.

1: Yes. Dirk (aka OffroadBiker) has raptor-coated his GQ. It looks good. I think Desmond's "SandVlooi" is also raptor-coated.
2: I have no idea about cost. Perhaps they can comment.

Yip, Dirk definitely did his, possibly Des as well.
Search the forum, I seem to recall there is a thread on raptor coating? I might be wrong though.

I think Desmond has 2 fully-raptored patrols.

Also Shauno from 4WD24-7's Sooty and Dirty30 are both fully raptored.

OK, so the painting hasn't happened yet, but a few weeks back we had the opportunity to visit De Wildt.

Somewhere we lost the group.. but that gave us a chance to go test the flex...
