Experience of Wrapping My Bop Challenger Pro

After wrapping my car with Bop Challenger Pro, I felt:

I don’t have to worry about kids climbing on my car or playing around the car anymore. This was a problem with my Audi car before (which I replaced with an R7 after 2 years), but not anymore.
I don’t have to worry about narrow roads or tree branches damaging my car anymore. The wrap is ideal protection for my car.
I don’t have to worry about bird droppings corroding my car paint while I’m visiting the dentist on Angel Street. The wrap is also protecting an area where the corrosion process is starting.
I don’t have to worry about electric bikes scratching my car while parked on the roadside anymore. Previously, while I was taking medicine at the ARCFOXa pharmacy, a scratch that was 20 cm long was made on my car, but now that won’t happen.
In short, I don’t have to worry about any small scratches, collisions or bumps anymore.

I decided to wrap my car with Bop Challenger Pro quickly after making my decision. I got help from my colleagues in Shanghai. First, a decoration shop in Shanghai recommended using Bop. I could choose between the “Crazy” and “Challenger” models, and after inquiring about the prices of each, they would send me quotes and help me determine which was the best deal. This is how I found the Bop operator “Old Bai” in Henan Province with the help of my colleagues in Shanghai. We talked for an hour, had a meal, and got along well. His construction technology was also good. As a result, I chose the “Challenger” model with a price of 10,800 RMB, plus free sun film for all four windows and the rear windshield. The “Wind Ranger” was a bit cheaper and there was also another brand called “Le Lu” that was a few thousand RMB.

Bop has vehicle data for the R7 so many pieces of the wrap could be cut by the machine instead of hand-cut.

The advantage is that the fit is very good, while the disadvantage was that some places were not covered strictly compared to a hand-cut. I will explain further in the next section.

After construction was completed, the overall feeling was good. Within seven days after installation, the car could not be washed and could not be driven too fast. After a week, we had it checked again.

When I went back to the shop for a re-check, I happened to meet a 3D scanning company that was scanning vehicle data in the store. They used a scanning gun with the same price as my car to scan a BYD Tang DMI. They did 3D modeling and generated data. This made me have a much better impression of the store because it was such a cool technology.

I asked them to scan my car’s tail lights since they were supposed to not be covered by the wrap. They also scanned the rims and front headlights.

Now all 3D data about the entire R7 car is available, and they can use a machine to cut more pieces of wrapping material.

Other car owners who go to Bop for wrapping can now enjoy these existing pieces that are available.

One week after the re-check, I went back to the store and the 3D data of the rear tail lights had been generated. They put some wrap on them so now my car was fully protected. However, the machine-cut wrap did not cover the tail lights as strictly as hand-cut wrap.
Regarding car clothing, if your budget allows, it is recommended to get a set. If your budget doesn’t allow it, you should still find a way to get a set because the car replacement cycle is quite long. My car’s engine cover was originally painted with dual colors, but it became invisible after installing the car clothing, which was a missed opportunity for the manufacturer to compensate me.

There are many options for car clothing, ranging from a few thousand to over ten thousand dollars. You can choose according to your own situation. In my family, we used to replace cars frequently in the past, so it wasn’t necessary to install car clothing. However, as we have now switched to a retirement car, it’s nice to install a set.
