NARRATOR: In the exclusiveworld of supercars,

if you want yours to stand out,there's one customiser to call.

Yianni.

NARRATOR: A social mediastar, he creates one-off cars

in stunning colors.

Dealing with demanding clients--

So when does this
car need to be done by?

Tomorrow.

Are you serious?

--it's a high stakes world.

Wow.

2 million pounds worth of car.

Why would it be easy?

Up for this one?

NARRATOR: Where
image is everything.

Oh, my days, bruv.

NARRATOR: And the
aim is perfection.

100% happy.

A million percent happy.

[upbeat music]

NARRATOR: This time, a
very special present--

You're a bit young forthis sort of car, aren't you?

How old are you?

17.

NARRATOR: --is given
a radical gift wrap.

Are you prepared for howwow and how in your face

that color is?

NARRATOR: The color choiceis bold, perhaps too bold.

OK, Dad, it's your present.

I'm extremely nervous.

NARRATOR: The team come
under intense pressure.

Please tell me the customerknows you're rubbing this down.

NARRATOR: And when workgrinds to a complete halt--

I need to stop them working.

NARRATOR: --a very importantdeadline hangs in the balance.

[tense music]

[upbeat music]

YIANNI: Good morning.

Everyone, let's have you in.

Today, guys, I've got
a high end client.

His name is Paul.

He's got a son called Richard.

His son is 17 years oldand has got a new A-Class.

Not bad at all, man.

What was your first car?

It definitely
wasn't no A-Class.

[inaudible]

- Fiat Uno What can I say?- Wow.

Right.

A-Class Mercedes.

I know he's going to go achrome color, which means Mark

and Nicco, that is you, guys.

Any issues with chrome now?

Definitely, we're
going to have a problem

with the front bumper.

Pav, that means
you're going to have

to take the front bumper off.

All right, bumpers off onthat one will be a little bit

tricky, but we'll deal with it.

Shuts and returns?

Being chrome, the chancesare he's going to go

inside the door shuts, as well.

OK, so we've got
to take doors off.

Right.

As soon as the car arrives, I'llgive you guys a shout, yeah?

Get on.
Lovely.

Thank you.

[upbeat music]

NARRATOR: The A-Class
Mercedes rolls in.

Paul Backshall arrives,
driven by son Richard.

Paul runs a business
importing honey.

Nice to see you again.
YIANNI: Nice to see you.

Are you good with that, then?

Yeah, you're all right.

NARRATOR: Dad bought Richardthe Mercedes as a birthday

present last year.

You're a bit young forthis sort of car, aren't you?

RICHARD BACKSHALL: Not really.
YIANNI: How old are you?

- 17.
- His first car.

Two months before
his 17th birthday.

Brand new Mercedes-Benz.

RICHARD BACKSHALL: I
think this is normal.

YIANNI: Normal for
you, maybe not for us.

Happy days.

So what are we
doing to this car?

Well, we're going to--

Why are you
looking at your dad?

Because I'm paying.

Because you're paying.
Wow.

OK, then.

Any particular reason?

It's his 18th birthday,so it's a very special day.

So you dad bought
your first car

and he's paying for your wrap.

Right.

So we're going to
go a chrome blue.

Are you prepared for howwow and how in your face

that color is?

Yeah, I think it's goingto be pretty out there.

I haven't seen it before.

YIANNI: OK, you're going togo chrome blue with the car.

PAUL BACKSHALL: Yeah.

YIANNI: Anything else youwant done to the vehicle?

RICHARD BACKSHALL: Well, we'regoing to for the brake calipers

in yellow.YIANNI: Calipers in yellow.

Good choice, actually.

That works well with the blue.

Then with a very
thin gloss black.

Gloss black to
break the color up.

Yeah.

And does anyone know we'reactually wrapping this?

No, I haven't told anyone.

But you know the minute
I start posting this,

everyone's going to know.

Yeah, I think we'll justhave to leave me untagged.

Right.

When do you need
this car done by?

- Next week.
- Like everyone else.

That's what everyone says to me.

No one says, "Yeah,
take your time.

Don't worry about it."

Right.

I think we need to
crack on with his car.

Can I have the key, please?

OK, brilliant.

Well, listen, thank
you very much.

I'm going to let you get offand we're going to [inaudible]

RICHARD BACKSHALL: Thank you.

Lovely meeting you.

Absolute pleasure.

NARRATOR: The Mercedes A180.

This AMG line edition has18 inch alloys, sport seats,

and lower suspension.

The 1.6 liter, four-cylinderengine is turbo charged, too.

It's one desirable hot hatch.

[upbeat music]

Pressure is on for
this full body wrap.

The client has given the teamfour days to get it done.

[upbeat music]

Normally, a gray car is a goodplace to start with a wrap,

as you can trick the
eye and mask joins.

[upbeat music]

But this car is
going chrome blue--

hard to hide-- so to
get a top and finish,

it will need a little strip.

Got somewhere for
this door to go.

[upbeat music]

NARRATOR: Chrome wrap
is expensive at 120

pounds a meter.

Yianni doesn't
carry it in stock,

so a big order needs
to go in for this job.

- Yianni.
- Yeah.

Problem.

Just checked.

This is the only bit ofvinyl we've got for this car.

YIANNI: What are
you talking about?

So I've just
checked the orders.

I've just phoned the suppliers.

The order's not been
placed for blue chrome.

So the boys have got--
YIANNI: Is that it?

--that to play with.

That's it for now,
until tomorrow morning.

Well, we've got that littlebit of vinyl, do me a favor.

Do all the gloss black first anduse whatever you can do for now

until the one arrives tomorrow.

Then, when it turns up, youare going to have to be quick.

It's my fault. I've got tohold my hands up on this one.

Well, it's
ordered now, anyway,

so it'll be here tomorrow.

It's my fault. I gave
myself a verbal warning.

Next one's a written.

And then, I'm fired.

[upbeat music]

NARRATOR: The
A-Class is a year old

and it's picked up some
unexpected passengers.

Bruv, look at this.

MARK: Oh, wow.

YIANNI: Mobile greenhouse, bro.

You need to call someone
to clean this up.

We need a gardener, man.

MARK: You know where we'regoing to use this one?

One for me and one
for my brother.

Oh, thank you.

MARK: Just put it on your ear.

[upbeat music]

YIANNI: Cars need to besuper clean for vinyl wrap

to stick properly, so everyinch is inspected carefully.

I've seen some
dirty cars before,

but this one is the
next level, man.

It's like he
used it for rally.

Rally, definitely.

NARRATOR: Gloss black is
the first wrap to go on.

It's laid into the door shutsfirst, as chrome blue is too

thick for these complex curves.

Work's going well.

It's the end of the day,
but for petrol heads

like Yianni's team,
that's the key for them

to work on their own cars.

Workshop manager Alex hasa blue wrapped VW Golf,

and he's after a new
sound for his car, too.

Mechanic Mike has
agreed to help.

ALEX: Here you are, Mike.

What is this?

A blow off valve?

Fit that in for me, please.

Really?

NARRATOR: The blow
off valve will

change the way the car sounds.

If you rev it
[IMITATING CAR NOISE].

Because there's notenough show and tell on it.

There's not enough sparkle.

You want to make them see
it, hear it, everything.

Anyway, let me get
on with this, yeah?

Cheers.

NARRATOR: It's a
fairly simple job.

Mike will work on it
over the next few days.

[upbeat music]

Next morning, an urgent
delivery arrives.

ALEX: Nico, Mark.

Vinyl just [inaudible]
Chrome blue.

Let's quickly check it.

We're tied for time right now.

It looks perfect.

Ready?

Let's go.
- We can start.

NARRATOR: The wrapbrothers don't hang about.

But this can't be a rush job.

[upbeat music]

Chrome vinyl is
tough to wrap with.

It's twice as thick
as normal material

because it needs
more layers of color

to create the chrome effect,so it's much harder to stretch.

[upbeat music]

The temperature has to
be exact for it to be

flexible enough to wrap with.

[upbeat music]

Then, the brothers use thecar's natural body lines to hide

joins and create
a seamless look.

Upstairs as usual,
Yianni is keeping

a close eye on their work.

[upbeat music]

[phone ringing]

Hello, Yianni speaking.

PAUL BACKSHALL
[ON PHONE]: Hello.

Hello?PAUL BACKSHALL [ON PHONE]: Yes.

Yes.
Hello, Yianni.

Hi.

PAUL BACKSHALL [ON PHONE]: It'sPaul here, Richard's father.

Hi, Paul.

PAUL BACKSHALL [ON PHONE]:Yianni, unfortunately,

I've got some bad news.

We can't go ahead
with this wrap as it

stands because the insurancecompany we are insured with--

Yeah.

PAUL BACKSHALL [ON
PHONE]: --has withdrawn

insurance after they heardthat it's going to be wrapped.

I've actually never
heard this before,

and we've read
thousands of cars.

And I've never heard of
anyone that can't get

insured with a wrapped vehicle.

PAUL BACKSHALL [ON PHONE]: Yes.

I bet it's down to his age.

PAUL BACKSHALL [ON
PHONE]: Of course.

This wrap is for
his 18th birthday,

and you can imagine now howdisappointed Richard is.

Wow, have you told him?

PAUL BACKSHALL [ON
PHONE]: --to go ahead.

I have told him.

He's gone into a state
of depression over it.

YIANNI: Wow.
OK.

You just keep ringing around.

I'll just put stop on
the car for the moment.

I'll have a
conversation with Burt

and see if there's anyone wecan recommend to you, as well.

PAUL BACKSHALL [ON
PHONE]: All right.

Thanks a lot, Yianni.
- Take care.

Bye bye.
Bye.

PAUL BACKSHALL [ON
PHONE]: Bye bye.

Bye bye.

Wow.

Imagine having to tell yourson that your birthday present

is now not going to happen.

But look at this.

The car is up in the
air with no doors on.

I've now got to
tell him you've got

to pay for your roll
of vinyl, yet we

can't put it on your car.

Don't think he's really gotan option, though, has he?

He can't get insured.

Wow.

I need to stop them working.

[upbeat music]

NARRATOR: In the workshop,there's frustration in the air.

Mid-wrap, work has been haltedon the chrome blue Mercedes

when an insurance companycanceled their cover.

Time and money had beenwasted, but the team was doing

all they can to save the day.

Hello there.

Wonder if you can help.

I'm trying to get someinsurance for a client of mine

who's an 18-year-old boydriving a Mercedes A-Class.

Right.

OK, I understand.

You don't cover
teenagers at all.

OK.

NARRATOR: Burt is
hitting the phones hard,

but unaware of the
drama in the office,

Mike is finishing off
the engine mod for Alex.

He's fitted the blow off valveto give the Golf a sportier

sound, but will it work?
- Al.

ALEX: Yeah, bro.

It's done.

ALEX: No way.

Sweet.
Yeah, man.

You want to hear it?

Yeah, I want to hear it.

Come on.

[car engine starting]

[car revving]

Wicked, man.
I like that.

I like that.

It worked.

[upbeat music]

So once you're on
the move, as well,

it will sound a lot louder.

Lovely, man.

Yeah?

You're the man.

Thank you.

[upbeat music]

NARRATOR: Burt's taken a call.

- Yianni, quick one.
- OK.

Good news.

Go on.

Just got off the
phone to an insurance

broker friend of mine.

YIANNI: Yeah.

BURT: I think we can getRichard insured on that A-Class.

Really?

You said the age and you saidthe car and you said the wrap?

I've told them.

They'll insure it with
the wrap and everything.

YIANNI: I'm reading him now.

Cool.

[phone ringing]

PAUL BACKSHALL
[ON PHONE]: Hello?

Hi, Paul.
How are you doing?

It's Yianni.
You well?

PAUL BACKSHALL [ON
PHONE]: Oh, yeah.

Look, I know you're
probably chasing me.

YIANNI: Paul, listen.

Don't panic.

I have managed to
find you a broker

that will insure your son.

PAUL BACKSHALL [ON
PHONE]: He's going

to be so, so happy with that.

And what I'm going
to do is I'm going

to crack back on with your car.

Obviously, we've lost a wholeday's worth of work now,

but don't worry about that.

I'm still going to try andget the car finished in time.

PAUL BACKSHALL [ONPHONE]: Thank you so much.

No, no.It's my absolute pleasure.

I'll send you the details now.

Get on the phone to them
and I'm going to head

downstairs and tell the boys.Brilliant.

Take care.
[interposing voices]

Cool.

[upbeat music]

Listen, guys, let's
get back on it now.

We've managed to
get him insured.

Missed a day.

We need to catch up.

NARRATOR: A costly cancelledjob has been saved.

Now, the pressure is on.

Mark and Nico need to
make up the lost day.

[upbeat music]

Then, prep begins for
painting the calipers.

The car is backed up and
everyone except Vasili

leaves, as the spray
fumes are toxic.

The brake calipers
go a bold yellow.

Four coats of paint
build a tough surface.

The car will be left
to dry overnight.

And upstairs in theoffice, Yianni can relax.

So I was thinking, Yianni,Richard's A-Class downstairs.

YIANNI: Richard-- oh, Richard.

Yeah.

How lucky is that boy?

First car, A-Class.

You can't go wrong, can you?

What was your first car?

My first car--

Fiesta, 1.1 LB, Reg.

The lowest of low in blue.

BURT: What did the L stand for?- Loser.

[laughter]

- I felt cool, though.
- Really?

And I couldn't
afford an XR2, and I

couldn't afford the insurance,so I made it look like one.

I put pepperpot wheels.

BURT: So you put
a sticker on it?

YIANNI: And I put
pepperpot wheels.

[laughter]

To be fair, the Fiesta was cool.

But you know what it
was back in the day?

It was all about insurance.

You couldn't get insurance.

Yeah.

What was your first car?

I had a Vauxhall Corsa 1.2 LS.

YIANNI: LS, what
did that stand for?

- Loser.
- Seriously.

BURT: Seriously.

[laughter]

It was in bright--

I used to call it Ferrarired, but everyone else used

to call it dogs lipstick red.

It was shocking.

But I had M3 wing mirrorson it, so it looked good.

You had M3 wing mirrors?

Oh, you're one of them guys.

BURT: Do you remember that?

You're one of them.

So you put like stupid
wing mirrors on the side

to make it look cool.

Yeah, I didn't
even color code them.

I left them black.

YIANNI: Really?

Yeah, it looked so bad.

Why did I do that?

1.2, though.

Was it fast?

Yeah.

Knot 240.

40 Didn't even get to 60.

[laughter]

Yeah, it was well rapid.

YIANNI: Really?

Yeah, it was bad.

But anyway,
Richard's a lucky guy.

A-Class, chrome blue, first car.

Yeah.

Hashtag winning.

Good for him, man.

BURT: Indeed.

[upbeat music]

NARRATOR: Next
morning, the boss is

chasing news on the Mercedes.

YIANNI: Oh, is
that the new color?

The calipers are sprayed.

Yeah, OK.

Stickers?

Stickers I forgot to do.

Are you serious?

And now, we can't put
the wheels back on.

Not for now, but
we'll get it done today.

Please do.

We're already miles
behind on this car.

We're under pressure on this.

And you it's the kid's
birthday, as well, yeah?

OK.

Do you want him
upset on his birthday?

Not really.

- Let's deal with this, yeah?- Cool.

YIANNI: All right.

NARRATOR: Alex
creates fine design

work in vinyl using
a plotter machine,

which makes complex cuts.

ALEX: It's quite intricate work.

It's all these small details.

Like, this is the
extreme we go to.

I mean, this only goes
on the brake caliper,

but, you know, every
little detail helps.

[upbeat music]

And job done.

Simple as that.

[upbeat music]

NARRATOR: Unusually, theguys are working outside.

The A-Class front spoiler
is in bad condition,

with deep stone chips.

Guys, what are you lot doing?

NARRATOR: But the car needsto be delivered today.

Please tell me the customerknows you're rubbing this down.

Because when he
takes the wrap off,

he's going to need to painthis whole front bumper.

The customer has
given us permission.

It needed to be done.
- 100%?

ALEX: 100%.

There were so many
stone chips all over it.

There was paint peeling.

The vinyl couldn't
stick over it.

Right.

And even if it did, it wouldhave pulled the paint off.

Make sure the front
bumper is checked 100%

before we lay any vinylon it because if he knows

we're rubbing it down andthere's still any imperfections

anywhere, he's going to
be on the phone to me,

and chrome is so, so expensive.

Plus, we're up against itbecause the chrome was delayed.

I do not want to disappointhim on his birthday, guys.

NARRATOR: Working fast, the teamsand it back clean and prepped,

ready for the wrap.

There's just a few
hours left, and finally,

the front end to theMercedes is ready for vinyl.

Mark and Nicco, the chrome wrapexperts, do what they do best.

Now, we're working onthe last part of this car.

It's quite hard at the
moment because we're

trying to make
everything in one piece

and this is the
last vinyl, as well.

Pressure on.

[upbeat music]

NARRATOR: In total, the brothershave worked on cars worth tens

of millions of pounds.

[upbeat music]

You don't put something atthe front and put it here.

[upbeat music]

NARRATOR: 50 separate partsneed to go back onto this car

before it's ready
to be inspected.

PAV: I love it.

You always do a good job.NICO: Thanks, mate.

So you ready?

Let's do it.

Good.

[upbeat music]

Lock her up.

NARRATOR: It's delivery time,but Yianni won't be handing

over this gift-wrapped
A-Class until he's

100% sure it's good to go.

[upbeat music]

It's been a difficult few days,but the car is signed off.

It is really bright chrome.

My God.

Yeah, especially here.

Outside is going to
be really in your face.

Great job, though, yeah.

Really smashed it.

Smashed it.

Well done.

I actually don't think they'reaware of how bright this is

and how much it's goingto stand out on their road

and when they're driving around.

I hope they like it, to be fair.

[upbeat music]

You well?
- Yes.

Thank you.
- You good?

Yeah.
You all right?

You look nervous.

Yeah.

I'm nervous for me and my dad.

Why are you nervous?

I think it's just
such a bright color.

Dad, it's your present.

I'm extremely nervous.

Let's hope it's not as
bright as he wants it.

[laughter]

I want a big,
bright, blue car.

Congratulations.

It sounds like you got one.

YIANNI: You've
definitely got one.

RICHARD BACKSHALL: I
want to see the car.

Turn around.

I'm going to pull the car out.

I can't wait to
see your reaction.

[knocking]

[suspenseful music]

[car revving]

[upbeat music]

PAUL BACKSHALL: Look at that.

Outstanding.

That is unbelievable.

My-- Oh, that is so--

RICHARD BACKSHALL: That's cool.I like that.

PAUL BACKSHALL: Cool?
RICHARD BACKSHALL: Yeah.

PAUL BACKSHALL: What
a birthday present.

Yeah.
Cheers.

[laughter]

Is it bright enough for you?

A little.

Yeah.

Is it what you wanted?

Exactly what I wanted.

I think it's awesome.

What do you think?

PAUL BACKSHALL: It's stunning.

It's really, really
beautiful, isn't it?

I'm so surprised.

And the attention to detail.

The yellow calipers with theMercedes-Benz being put back.

The door handles.

The black roof.

I'm pleasantly surprised.

YIANNI: Really?

Does it look like your car?

No.

I can't believe
it's actually mine.

It doesn't look like mine.

YIANNI: It is yours.

RICHARD BACKSHALL: Yeah.

What a car to have
for your birthday.

That's unbeatable.

I don't think there's
anything like it.

Are you going to
let him drive it?

I've got [inaudible] today.

YIANNI: You [inaudible] today?

One other thing for you.

PAUL BACKSHALL: Oh my goodness.

Oh, wow.

So we've done the key.

Just so you know, I'm
not warrantying the key.

That was my littlebirthday present for him.

OK, so I'll give you the key.
OK.

Enjoy.
PAUL BACKSHALL: Yeah.

Thank you, Yianni.

Drive safely, and
I'll see you soon, yeah?

OK.NARRATOR: It's been a tough job.

The wrap almost
didn't happen at all.

But now, this unique birthdaypresent is ready for the road.

I think my dad's
done really well.

I don't think he couldhave got a better present.

There's not much else
he could've done.

He's made me really happy.

Yeah.

It's a special birthday
and a special boy.

Yeah.

Yeah.

[upbeat music]
