with intricate attention to detail in both design and the
choice of materials, and printing capabilities. In addition to
wrapping the vehicle, interior graphics were used on the
engine and other areas for a total and more complete visual
appeal," Alverio says.
All of that attention to detail paid off; the vehicle took the
top prize in Avery Dennison's 2018 Wrap Like a King
competition. (Another winning project from MetroWrapz is
featured on our cover and on pg. 30 along with all of this
year's regional Wrap Like a King champs.)
From printing to wrapping to completion, the team
finished the project in three days.

When an active-duty US Air Force flight engineer brought
his white 2015 Dodge Challenger Hellcat to MetroWrapz
(metrogroupmiami.com) seeking a unique design to match
his passion for military aviation history, the wrap team knew
the project would be their most complicated to date. The
client wanted his car to look like an embattled World War
II-era P51 Mustang fighter aircraft.
Designers from MetroWrapz - a division of Metro
Group Miami, a full-service sign and graphic studio serving
South Florida for more than 30 years - created the artwork
from historic photos to keep the design authentic to the
original aircraft.
The team used an HP Latex 570 to print onto Avery
Dennison SF100 Silver Conform Chrome as the base layer,
with Avery Dennison DOL 1080Z matte lamination, to
give the wrap the requested look and shine of old metal,
says Carlos Alverio, MetroWrapz general manager and lead
wrap installer. They also used Avery Dennison MPI 1105
Supercast film.
"Special details, such as rust and bullet holes, were
positioned perfectly over the entire body of the car, helping
to bring these realistic attributes of a war-torn car to life
