Vinyl Wrapping The TT Makes A GIANT Difference! | Learning How And Practicing!

Hey Everyone! It is finally starting to warm up over here, meaning it is time we start learning how to wrap a car. This is a really difficult skill and something I have always wanted to learn. I figured I would make a video on my first attempt, and talk about some of the things I find so fascinating about the process. I hope you enjoy! Let me know what color I should make the car in the comments:)

Dark blue with some black trim would look insane

[@HunterDirection]

I completely agree. That would look fantastic. Thanks for the support!

[@dasy887]

You couldn’t have made this video at a better time for me, Im pretty much set on wrapping my 2002 225Q soon so the tips you provided are much appreciated. For myself I’m thinking of either something close to nardo gray or dark purple. Keep making great content!

[@HunterDirection]

I am really glad you found the video helpful! Nardo Grey is a great choice and I also really love deep purples. Both sound awesome for a TT. Thank you for the support!

[@MartinVettel]

Id say blue fire body with gunmetal wheels:) If white is your winner, deffo something unique, like white gold sparkle.

[@HunterDirection]

I really like the blue fire idea! I am also really sold on gunmetal for wheels for pretty much any color I go with. Thank you for the support!

[@erichorrobin431]

I like your approach 👍 you are an interesting young man with a healthy approach to your work. Not expecting positive result first time. Cool. Keep it up

[@HunterDirection]

I am really glad you appreciate my approach to work. Learning is where all the fun is at! thank you so much for the support!

[@Fasfred]

Hunter; impressed with your willingness to take chances and not expect perfection the first time out; you’ll go far dude. I’ve got silver Borbets on my silver TT, and nothing changes the look of the car more than wheels. Keep up the great videos!

[@HunterDirection]

It makes me very happy that you enjoy the videos. I think having a willingness to learn is really important outlook to have. It is great to see that someone else appreciates that. :) Thank you for all the support! Your TT sounds awesome!

[@steelandplastic3203]

Really good job on the wrapping man! Me personally I like good simple wraps but do what you want! It’s your car after all!

[@HunterDirection]

Thank you! It didn't turn out perfect, but it is a really fun skill to learn that I am sure I will use and improve upon in the future. I agree :) I don't think I would ever put a full pattern on a car, but it's crazy how well some of them can turn out.

[@marcdecelles1429]

Go carbon fibre wrap outside and fire engine red wrap for the inside trims…Really sharp!

[@HunterDirection]

Woah that could be a really cool look. I love carbon fiber haha. Thanks for the support!

[@rushardmiller9229]

i follow Paradox the wrapper on you tube and he has some really dope colors. I say stay with the White, and go for what's in your heart. Mine is a white with Blue metallic flakes, going on this summer.

[@HunterDirection]

I will be sure to check out Paradox the Wrapper and see his colors. I am glad you like the white idea :) White with the blue metallic flakes sounds like a really cool combination! Thank you for the support! I really appreciate it.

[@erichorrobin431]

Cour suggestion electric blue or light blue looks awesome

[@HunterDirection]

A variation of blue is definitely high on the list!

[@peterosborne7]

Gloss black and gold chrome would look sick 😉👍

[@HunterDirection]

I agree! I think that would be a great combo! Thank you for the support!

[@kevinsilveira6189]

Once again a great video! Personally I would go for a mouse grey color with black roof and side mirrors along with some 18 BBS Le mans. I also agree with some of the comments, lowering the car a bit makes the car look way more agressive. In the end it just ideias so whatever you decide to go with, Im sure it will look amazing! Looking foward for more updates!

[@HunterDirection]

I am really glad you like the video! I love that grey idea, and those wheels would be so sweet. A good pair of coilovers is absolutely on the bucket list in the near future. I am really excited for how those alone will change the look!

[@k1ortia]

Amazing channel and content, Greetings from the UK.

[@HunterDirection]

Thank you for the feedback! I appreciate the support!

[@k1ortia]

@@HunterDirection your welcome 👍🏽

[@leonjamicic8079]

rogue bordeaux would look great in combination with the black wheels!

[@HunterDirection]

I completely agree! That would be a pretty unique color for the tt for sure. Thanks for the support!

[@haviiithelegogunner907]

You need to lower it first. KW V3. 1.5* negative camber. Next step: 8,5x19 BBS RS 861 speedlines with 225/35/19. This will transform the car to something else.

[@HunterDirection]

Those would be insane on this car!👌 If only they didn't cost a small fortune haha. Someday I'll have some! ...its a good long term goal at least haha. Thanks for the support!

[@MadCheshire]

I'm planning on doing mine in a dark purple wrap, and maybe some orange accents somewhere. I want it to be kind of halloween themed

[@HunterDirection]

Ooh that would be a really cool look! I feel like darker purples are a really underrated car color that can turn out really fantastic! Thanks for the support!

[@jameshawkins6553]

Great video, like the idea of a green with dark wheels but whatever takes your fancy. Thought about wrapping my TT in a similar colour to Green Envy but would never be brave enough to give it a go myself. Be interested to see how easy it is when you come to remove the piece on the roof. Be a little concerned that it would take some of the lacquer along with it on my car. Well done though, look forward to seeing which colour you choose.

[@HunterDirection]

I am so happy it's not just me who likes the idea of a dark green with carbon black trim. I think it would be so incredible! Thanks for the support! I'll be sure to heat the film so it doesn't cause lacquer peel:)

[@eddiebreelz4226]

U just inspired me to try this and learn it on my TT.... I really want to go Brite green with carbon bits..... damn im gonna go order a couple pieces probably do the gas lid first

[@HunterDirection]

I am glad to hear that! It's always fun to practice stuff like this and learn something you can keep getting better at. Brite green with carbon sounds awesome... anything with carbon bits will be awesome haha. I am excited to hear how it turns out!

[@eddiebreelz4226]

@@HunterDirection I think i follow you on IG ill make sure to show u some progress

[@ludwigsandstrom2560]

You need some BBS Rs2 wheels, best looking stock wheel by far and with some 15/20mm spacers it looks really really good

[@HunterDirection]

That would be so sick! I wish those wheels didn't cost an arm and a leg though. They have such a timeless design!

[@ludwigsandstrom2560]

@@HunterDirection Yeah they are expensive but my TT came with them and im so happy it did! : )

[@seierskovruphansen5350]

Great video, since the roof is curved do you Think it is possible to make a sunroof, i Think it would look really cool on a tt

[@HunterDirection]

Oh woah I'm sure that would be really cool👌 that sounds like ot may take a bit of troubleshooting to get right though. I'd be so worried it would leak haha

[@dacasman]

You're not supposed to try to flatten out those "fingers" that stick up around the edges @6:28 Instead you have to lift the vinyl back up and stretch the fingers out. The material should be very forgiving and let you lift it back up multiple times. good job at your first attempt though, especially in the cold. Keep it up man!

[@HunterDirection]

Oh that makes alot more sense! I am really excited to try it again when it's actually warm enough not to tear as I lift it back up. It got way too cold towards the end of my attempt, but I learned alot. I appreciate the support! I will try that next time:)

[@dacasman]

@@HunterDirection yeah man, you'll be amazed how much easier it is in warm weather. It almost doesn't even make sense how forgiving the vinyl is. I've wrapped some really complicated stuff like all the plastics on my honda grom, which are very complex and angled, and it took me a while to learn that the vinyl can be lifted off and reapplied many times, bit by bit.

[@moncier77]

Ok Hunter- I’m stumped on an issue. My Audi TT isn’t boosting past 7 psi. New n75 and DV. Have you also explored the Internet and seen such an issue? I’m thinking a boost leak.

[@HunterDirection]

Hmm I will happily do some research and see what I think it is. So I have a bit more knowledge to go off of is it a 180, or a 225? Also has it been tuned/what psi does it hit normally? Since, from the sounds of it, you have a boost gauge, is there any change to what it reads as far as idle vacuum pressure? I am happy to brainstorm with you to fix it.

[@moncier77]

@@HunterDirection it’s a 225 stock tune. Usually around 17 psi normal conditions. But that has changed and can’t figure out the issue.
