NARRATOR: Early morning, North London.

Yianni gathers his crewfor an important briefing.

Guys, let's have a quick meeting, please.

OK, so what is happening thisweek-- so I've got a brand

new customer called Peter.

We haven't actually worked with him before.

I know he's a car dealer,so really important.

I'm sure he's going to give us repeat business,

so we need to make sure wetreat him really, really well.

He's got a BMW i8.

I've been told he's got a body kit on it.

So I'm sure that's going to be fun

for you guys stripping this car down,

and for you guys wrapping it.

We're not quite sure what color he's going.

I do understand the car is blue.

OK?

We on it?

CREW: Yeah.

Brilliant. Let's crack on.

Cheers, guys Thank you.

NARRATOR: Peter turns up in the Beamer.

He's bang on time, a man on a mission.

Peter. How are you doing?

You well? - Yeah, good to see you.

- You're good? - Yep.

Wow. She's lovely.

She is. She is.

What a great color.

I'm a big fan of this color, to be fair.

- I like it too. - Yet we're wrapping it.

Why?

It's for my customer.

I export cars worldwide.

OK.

And the guy wants a certain color,

so we're going to give it to him.

- Where is this car going?- Cyprus.

- Cyprus? - Yeah.

- My country. - It is.

And mine too.

And this client of yours.

Is he Greek? - Russian.

Russian.

So he's a big client. - Massive.

OK, so let's just go over this car.

So it's an i8.

It's got a full Schnitzer body kit.

It's got the side skirts.It's got the front.

It's got a massive spoiler on the back.

Yeah.

YIANNI: I notice it's gotthe big Schnitzer wheels.

Yep.YIANNI: What color are we going?

Dragon fire red.

So we're going to pop abright red on this car, yeah?

Yeah.

It's going to actually looklike a factory paint job, yeah?

- Yeah, that's what he wants.- OK.

I'm looking at the bonnet.

A lot of my customers usually--

they leave the gloss black section

and just wrap this around.

Yep. No.

- No? - Not for this guy.

This guy wants the whole bonnet wrapped in red,

but he wants to leave thevent and the grill black.

He wants the whole bonnet wrapped.

That's actually going to changethe whole look of this i8.

Yep.

OK, we've also got gray bits and silver bits.

What are we doing with them?

All these gray bits you see here, they're going

to be glossed over in black.- Gloss black?

Yeah, OK. And the silver bits?

So we're basically goingto leave as they are.

OK, so we're leaving the silver as factory,

the gray to gloss black.

Yep.

We're doing the brake calipers in gloss black.

YIANNI: We're doing the brake calipers--

PETER PETROU: Calipers.

Get rid of the blue on that.- Really?

OK. - Yep.

So my guys are going to havea lot of fun with this then.

Just for accuracy, when isthis car going to Cyprus?

I've got it booked in on the vessel

to leave the end of the week.

- So no pressure then. - No pressure.

Wow, you have to be really easy for my guys.

And then off it goes to Cyprus.- And then it goes.

OK.And I'll see you soon, yeah?

- See you soon. - Take care.

See you later.

NARRATOR: The BMW i8 is astunning hybrid supercar,

creating sensational performancefrom the electric motor and the

petrol engine under the bonnet.

An outstanding piece of design,these cars are in high demand.

The standard turnaround time fora job like this is five days.

But Yianni has just three to get this Beamer

through his workshop and on the boat.

His customizing team are highly talented,

but that's a tough deadline.

YIANNI: BMW i8 is in.

Mike's obviously going to get it up in the air,

get the wheels off.

We'll do the calipers.

Fun and games.

On the bonnet, usually we breakup the bonnet with the black.

We're not.

It's going full red.

So everything that's blue is going to red.

Anything that's gray is going to black.

And anything that's silveris staying the same.

Issues, Mike, as you're stripping this car.

The only issues you're going to have are

is obviously the additional body kit.

So like spoiler where that'smaybe bonnet on the outside,

we're going to have to work around

that and obviously make it asclean as possible for the boys

to wrap it. YIANNI: All right.

So you're going to have fun stripping it.

You're going to have fun wrapping it.

And just the first going into the mix

is this car's going to Cyprus.

OK.

Big Russian client.

It's going on a boat on Saturday.

Easy, yeah? No pressure?

No. No pressure.

Sure?

What about you stripping a fit in it?

Is high on the boat?

Yeah.

I can finish fitting it on the way there.

[laughter]

We got the job sheet.

I'm going to stick it to the windscreen.

Let's get to work.

Yeah?

It's a massive job.

We're on a real, real tightschedule with this one.

I pride myself on not missing deadlines.

I do not want to start now.

I don't see it's going to Cyprus.

We need to make sure this is on the money.

It's in my country.

You know people are going to look at it

and be like, oh, yeah, so let'ssee how good the [inaudible]

are in London in Cyprus.

We'll show them.

NARRATOR: Before the red vinyl wrap can begin,

the BMW needs to be stripped.

Magic Mike is the man with thetask of safely removing over

70 parts, from wheels to body.

The parts have been sorted,cataloged, and shelved.

But it doesn't take long to discover a problem.

The rear spoiler is stronglybonded to the bodywork.

Removing it could damage the car and body kit.

Leaving it on means the wrap team will struggle

to fit vinyl around it.

I'm not feeling the bonding right now.

[inaudible] And you can't get nothing off.

Mike's now telling me how you can get it off.

I'll leave the stem here.

Do you have time to [inaudible]??

- Doing it. - Yeah?

A little bit of tape.

[interposing voices]

Let me say something to you.

I ain't sending you to Cyprus, yeah?

Just because you thoughtyou'd get away with it, yeah.

He thinks I'm gonna send him to Cyprus, yeah.

When he goes, aw, Yianni, I have to go

there and fix it in Cyprus.

And you need the stripperfit to go just in case.

Oh, yeah.

When you're going toCyprus, yeah, let's do that.

Good one.

[music playing]

NARRATOR: All this talk of Cyprus

has Yianni thinking of home.

Bert, I just messaged one of my boys in Cyprus

and I said to him, I ain't going out there.

He's got a fortune. It's a body kit.

And he's like, yeah, there'sloads of these out here.

Really? In Cyprus?

Back in the day, there wasnone of these cars in Cyprus.

BERT: I've never seen a i8 In Cyprus.

I remember horses and car in Cyprus--

Many moons ago.

--but i8s, no.

I know nowadays there's-- listen.

There's brand new money outthere, so they've got Ferraris.

I get it.

I think they got one or two Lambos.

BERT: But then, I haven'tbeen out to Cyprus

for like six, seven years anyway,

so it doesn't really count.

To be fair, like myearliest memories of Cyprus,

we'll be lucky to see a Mercedes or BMW.

The Mercedes were all the taxis.

Yeah, that's true.

I mean old school.

With like the beaded seats.- Yeah.

Kleenex tissue in the back window.

The gold one in the back of the sensor.

That is typical Cypriot.

He definitely wants the wow factor.

That is why the car is coming to us.

He's already had the kit fitted,so he's already tried to go

big and fat on the vehicle.

But with the wrap, it completes it.

He wants to stand out in Cyprus.

And if there's loads of them out there,

he's going to stand that with a wrap for sure.

Yeah. 100%.

[music playing]

NARRATOR: Wrapping is oftenabout high-end fashion

and personality.

Businesswoman Ninu is a returning

client who wants to rebootthe look of her Ferrari.

YIANNI: Hey, babe. How you doing?

You well? NINU: Good.

How are you? YIANNI: I'm good, good.

Long time. - Yeah.

Good to see you.YIANNI: So you're back again?

I am, yeah.

I think we just need to makea couple of changes to it.

OK.

So last time, we done the roof,the mirrors, the side skirts,

and the windows.

So what we thinking?

I think we just need to adda bit more of the Yianni touch

to it.

YIANNI: OK.

So I want my baby to look a bit like yours.

A beast.

[music playing]

NARRATOR: Yianni drives a Lamborghini Aventador

S, wrapped in chrome red.

A.k.a., The Beast.

At the moment, it still looksvery simple from the front.

You want to look a lot moremeaner coming from the front

now? - Mm-hmm.

I think what we should nowdo is the bottom skirting.

Have it so that it's matching the roof.

OK.

So you want to do the lowestsplitter in satin black?

NINU: And also the tints.

They're too dark. YIANNI: Tinted too dark?

Too dark. No one can see me.

No one can see you. You like to be seen?

I like to-- NINU: Definitely.

--have my window black, black, black.

No, no.

It's good to be seen.

You want to be seen.

I need the car to look as good as I do.

OK, so when's this car need to be done by?

Tomorrow? YIANNI: Tomorrow?

Tomorrow, midday.

Are you serious?

Um--

But you're a Yianni, right?

So you can do it.

Why does everyone say that?

OK.

If it works for you, I'm happy.

I'm gonna somehow get this car done in a day.

To be honest, it's noteven a day, is it really?

NINU: It's not, no. - Great.

I appreciate that.

You better give me the key and get lost, then.

NINU: I'll see you tomorrow.YIANNI: I'll see you later.

Take care, darling. NINU: See you.

Bye.

YIANNI: See you later.

One day.

Really?

NARRATOR: The Ferrari 488 has a 3.9

liter twin turbo charged V8.

With its trademark rosso red paint

and the iconic prancinghorse, it's already a stunner.

It's Yianni's job to make it even more

of a head-turner in 24 hours.

But the last thing the team need is another car

on a tight deadline.

Has Yianni taken on too much?

Work is going well in the BMW.

The blue paintwork is beingwrapped in dragonfire red

and the guys are startingto feel the deadline heat.

But Yianni throws a Ferrari into the mix.

He set expert stripper, Pav,who's been working on supercars

for 10 years the task of prepping the doors ready

for window tinting.

Most Ferraris are quitefitted with the door quads.

The way that Ferraris arebuilt, there's a lot of screws

and a lot of bolts.

Definitely got to be careful with the lever

because it's so thin and is [inaudible]

any type of sharp object.

So if you've got a rub in your screw driver,

I guess, you could actually damage it.

I'm guessing if you damaged this whole door,

you'd be paying within thousands.

I mean, the bags alone, atleast a couple hundred quid.

[music playing]

NARRATOR: The workshop is running

well when suddenly, wrapper, Mark,

spots a problem on the i8.

So I was doing the bumperand I noticed the long scratch.

There's a long scratch here.

Right.

That's where it comes from.

Yeah, I see it.

[inaudible] here.

So this is the off-cut from the i8.

As you see, there's a linegoing all the way through here.

NARRATOR: Floor manager, Alex,breaks the news to Yianni.

They need his expert advice.

Yianni.

Just wanted to let you know Mark's laid a bit

on the i8 and slight issue.

Vinyl imperfection, printing error.

- On the i8? - Yeah.

NARRATOR: This vinyl cost 50 pounds

per square meter and the front wing

will need to be stripped and redone.

Gone?

He laid it.

Where's the vinyl?

Wow.

Should I just show it?

But tell me this is notanywhere else on the car.

NARRATOR: Immediately,he's worried that this is

more than just a one-off flaw.

Perhaps the whole roll is damaged.

Problem is they've been using this roll all day.

It's got a line running down the front bumper.

What I want to probably do is get

him to check the rest ofthe car now, just in case,

because if he's got a line somewhere

and they haven't spotted it,it's gonna be a massive issue

because this car going abroad.

And I haven't got any time to waste on this.

[music playing]

NARRATOR: Yianni has acceptedthe massive challenge to turn

around two cars in record time.

A Ferrari needs a strong-kneelook and the demanding client

needs it back pronto.

Tomorrow?

YIANNI: Tomorrow?

Tomorrow, midday.

NARRATOR: But the big worry is afull color change on a rare BMW

hybrid supercar, which hasa rendezvous with a boat

in just two days time.

Ah, so no pressure, then.

NARRATOR: They discovereda flaw in the vinyl--

I noticed a long scratch.

NARRATOR: --and the concernthey'll find more on the car.

ALEX: So this is the off-cut from the i8,

and you can actually see there's a line

going all the way through here.

Very faint line, but to us, it's a problem.

NARRATOR: Mark says it's a-OK, but for Yianni,

vital time and money have already been lost.

The good thing is on the BMW i8,

at the bumper's not massive.

They've checked the rest of the row

and they said there's nothing else on the car,

but obviously, it takes time for these guys

to wrap something and thenstrip it then rewrap it.

It costs time.

It costs money.

What can you do?

[music playing]

NARRATOR: Ninu is coming tocollect her Ferrari today,

so Yianni is forced to pullhis expert wrappers off the BMW

and get Mikey in to tintthe windows on the 4-8-8.

I'm doing it for 10 years now,so I've done all of the cars,

from vans to taxis, BMWs,and end up with hyper cars.

It requires experience and skill.

You just need to do it 1,000 times.

And obviously, there are easy cars, hard cars,

and impossible ones, as well.

The actual material we areusing is three-layer tint.

It's got scratch-resistant,it's got UV protection reduction

layer, and it's got security.

So I would alwaysrecommend to tint your car

to the legal limits, obviously.

Just because the tint is straight

as it comes from the rolland the glasses bend it,

we need to adjust the shape by hitting it

and shrinking, as you can see.

[music playing]

NARRATOR: As workcontinues on the Ferrari,

sales manager, Burke, gets an unexpected email

which threatens to put thewhole i8 wrap in jeopardy.

Just had an email fromPeter, the customer on the i8.

Essentially, what they want to do

is they want to change theblack trims that we've done.

They want to go in to a red, sojust to give that rear bumper

a slightly bigger area in red.

So it means that we need to strip

the bumper back off thecar and re-go into the red.

Customer's always right. [phone rings]

Excuse me.

Yiannimize, good afternoon.

NARRATOR: But Yianni can'tfocus on the i8 right now.

He's got a car to hand over to Ninu.

YIANNI: Hey, babe. How are you doing?

NINU: Hey. I'm good.

How are you? YIANNI: OK.

I'm really well. What's happening?

Excellent.

I'm really good.

YIANNI: Yeah?

The car's looking really nice.

[music playing]

YIANNI: Yeah? NINU: Yeah.

YIANNI: Much better now.

NINU: Definitely.

YIANNI: Yeah?

I think it matches the look that it deserves,

which is the beast look, similar to yours.

Actually, better than yours.

Yeah, no, this is really good.

I like what you've done it.

It matches the roof, skirting,and I like the tints.

The tints are good.

So it all works together now,is that what you're saying?

NINU: It definitely works now.

And now, this has definitelygot the Yianni touch.

OK, good.

I'm glad you're happy.

She looks real mean now.

NINU: Sure does.

Enjoy.

I'm gonna give you the key.Drive safely.

NINU: Thank you. - OK?

And I'm sure I'll see you driving around, OK?

NINU: See you soon.YIANNI: Take care, darling.

See you later. NINU: Bye.

YIANNI: Bye.

Not bad.

Less than one day.

[music playing]

NARRATOR: First deadlinemet, and after just 24 hours,

the Ferrari is now more of a beast.

[music playing]

With the Ferrari out the door, Yianni

gets up to speed on thelast-minute changes to the i8.

And he's not happy.

BURKE: They're changing the bit on the back--

YIANNI: What? BURKE: --for Peter.

YIANNI: What do you mean?

BURKE: You know outside the rear bumper?

Yeah.

We've done them in black.

He wants them in red.

Since when?

Just now.

I asked him specifically.

He said black.

His customer's come back to himand said, I want them in red.

NARRATOR: Worse still, a rumorhas reached him that the client

is having secondthoughts about what color

the calibers are going.

What we doing with the calibers?

Hasn't told me.

I have asked him. - We need to know.

We need to put the wheels back on the car.

- I know. - Going through.

BURKE: I know.

YIANNI: Phone him.

Let me try him anyway.

I do not want to beputting wheels on the car,

taking the wheels off,putting the wheels back on.

[music playing]

Peter?

Yianni.

PETER [ON PHONE]: Yianni,how are you doing?

I'm very well.

Yourself?

PETER [ON PHONE]: Yeah, I know I'm [inaudible]..

OK.

So we've changed the rear.OK.

I'm not happy about it, but it is what it is.

I'm more concerned about the calipers, pal.

PETER [ON PHONE]: OK.

I need to know what we're doing because I've

got the wheels off the car.

I need to know if I'm making that blue to red.

Am I making it all black?

Just because I don't want toput the wheels back on the car,

put it on the floor, then youtell me something different.

PETER [ON PHONE]: Make them blue to red.

Make them blue to red? Brilliant.

Then I can put the wheels back on the car.

[music playing]

NARRATOR: With a clear brief,the team can now crack on.

But Yianni is feeling the pressure.

YIANNI: Now we know this car is going to Cyprus.

It's got to be put on a container.

So not only are we up against it,

they're now actually putting obstacles for us

to climb over to try and make this car complete.

Now we have to rewrap the rearpanel, fit the rear panel,

and we're running out of time.

[music playing]

NARRATOR: The team have to put in overtime

to get the car finished, butit will be down to the wire.

The whole crew getinvolved because they know

what this deadline means to Yianni

and his Greek Cypriot client.

Reputations are on the line.

Deadline day.

But the car won't leave the workshop

to the most exacting man in thebusiness says it's ready to go.

He's checking everydetail down to the finish

on the custom red wrapped BMW logo.

Peter's on his way, but will the car be ready?

YIANNI: How you doing? You well?

PETER: Good, mate. You?

- You good? - Yep.

- Nervous? - Very.

First of all, yet, when is this car going

to Cyprus on the container?

I've just been on the phone now.

They've got it waiting. The containers arrived.

I've got to drive this car straight there,

load it, get it on that vessel.

So, literally, we need to getthis car out, make sure you're

happy, and get it gone. - Straight away.

YIANNI: Or I'm gonna [inaudible]..

Let me call the guys.

Let's do it.

NARRATOR: They've been workingto a critical deadline.

PETER: Here it comes.

NARRATOR: They've had problems with the vinyl.

YIANNI: You ready?

Ready.

NARRATOR: The client haschanged their mind mid-job.

But the BMW i8 is ready to roll.

[music playing]

Wow. Look at it.

[SINGING] Live my life, but they can't.

I'm the one and only.

I've been around the world.

PETER: Spot on.

YIANNI: Perfect color?

Loving the color.

YIANNI: Yeah?

PETER: Loving the color, loving the detail.

This wasn't an easy wrapwith all the little trim bits

that we needed doing to it.

But the more I see, you've nailed it.

Absolutely. - See the calipers?

I'm loving them.

It's exactly what he wanted.

He just wanted the red hint on the calipers

there just to match with the bodywork on the car.

Get rid of the blue.

He wanted it to look factory,and it's looking factory.

It looks amazing. Top job.

Absolute amazing.

Couldn't be happier. - Brilliant.

I'm so happy.

Less is more, as they say.

Attention to detail.

I'm very meticulous, sothe job had to be correct

for you and for your customer.

Absolutely.

Tell me, when this car lands in Cyprus,

is this gonna be parked in all the hotspots?

A car looking like this, it's not gonna

be shied away in a corner.

It's gonna be there for everybody to see.

And in the sunlight aswell, it's gonna be amazing.

I'm glad you're happy.

Good luck sending it to Cyprusand let me know what he thinks,

OK? PETER: Thank you.

Cheers. - Brilliant.

Don't rush, but get it onthat container ASAP, OK?

I'm gone. See you later.

I'll see you later.

[music playing]

I can't stop looking at the car.

I keep turning around because Ijust can't stop looking at it.

NARRATOR: Yianni has landedan important new contact,

and he's proud of the shipshape i8 he's

sending back to his homeland.

[music playing]

[boat horn sounding]
