This year I did a special wrap project for the 4th of July. I had the opportunity to design a wrap for a rare Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse. You may have spotted one just like it in the Transformers, Age of Extinction movie. This car; dubbed @BLEU_VITESSE on Instagram, wanted a patriotic look for our nations Independence day.
The car is finished with a beautiful blue tinted carbon fiber body that would be a shame to cover up. I stuck with the light blue accented body panels on the lower half of the car. To keep the light blue wheels tied in, we color matched them with a light blue outline on the “Bleugatti” lettering on the door. The wrap is a digital print on 3M’s latest v3 air release wrap vinyl, protected with 3M gloss wrap lamination.
Beneath the colorful exterior is the monstrous 8.0 liter W16 engine, pumping 1,200 horse power and 1,106 lb-ft of toque. That is a whopping 199 more horsepower than a “regular” Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport. That’s mainly thanks to turbo power; 4 of them pushing over 20 psi of boost.
With all the extra power, Bugatti is proud to keep their fuel economy ratings from the less powerful Grand Sport model of 8mpg city, and 15mpg highway, for a combined 10mpg. However, with a 255 miles per hour top speed, and a 2.5 million dollar price tag, who is thinking about fuel economy?
This car travels all over the country to different car shows, rallies, and events. It may be rockin’ a new outfit the next time you see it. This wrap was designed here in San Diego, California, and installed on site by our friends from Protective Film Solutions. You can visit KI Studios in San Diego for custom design, print, and installation of vehicle wraps and paint protection. Not in California?
