Some wraps look great and some look brutal. Personal choice. Guys that personalize them with their business name or sponsors probably have a negative value......unless there are Monster stickers integrated in the wrap. Everyone loves Monster stickers.

I could really give a chit either way but a 14 year old kid sure gets excited when you buy him a sled with a wrap,led lights, and a stereo.

I think I am going to get a stock replica wrap with a slight twist on the colors. The stock decals are total garbage.

Bought a sled with a pretty nice wrap on it. Im not a huge fan of them, but I know some people are. Took out a side panel on my last ride so now have to decide whether to pay $90 for new stickers for a side panel (which I think is ridiculous) or strip the rest of the wrap off. If I go that route is it a nightmare or not too bad?


if it’s the industry-standard Skittles Barf Wrap, the only way to leverage that into higher resale value is to sell the matching Neon Vomit Onesie with it! Now you’re making bank bruh.

Wraps are a huge waste of time and money, hours of tedious $hit to remove old decals, clean surfaces and install new, cost an arm and a leg and IMO de-value the sled, as what some douche thinks is cool isn't cool to another. Also real cool when you smash a side panel or hood plastics and need to replace the plastic, now the rest of the machine is wrapped except for the new plastic parts. I'm sure for more cost you could get the piece re printed and put on but now your wasting even more $$$ and time. I'd rather spend the cash on sled mods and gear instead of trying to look awesome for your Instagram and Facebook friends

Best looking usually is no wrap, and remove all the ugly factory decals to. Clean and simple look is best. If i was going to wrap a sled it would be in all black. I had an orange hood cat, and yellow hood doo, i hated them...so wrapped the hoods in black and they looked so much better!

To each there own. Wraps are like tattoos, as long as your happy with them who cares.
