Nothing that doesn't exist. The "furling" in and on the vehicle!

There are very crazy companions on our streets. There are no limits to tuning, ideas are becoming more and more unusual. While the foiling of the vehicle has long been established, a fur foil is extraordinary. Can you actually call it that, or would “furling” be the more appropriate term? In the meantime, however, collectors have got a taste for it and equip their cars with the most unusual covers. Leopard patterns, sheepskin or a simple green meadow make your own vehicle appear flashy, as well as original.

Cozy fur cover on the car

Before it starts to be applied, it must be ensured that the car is free of grease and dirt. Thorough cleaning is therefore recommended. Once you have selected the right fabric, you can start with the Fellling. The material must of course be measured and cut to size. Then it must be applied very carefully to the vehicle and brought to all corners and edges. Since there are hardly any companies that have a lot of experience with a fur wrap, you cannot rely on a lot of know-how here. Nevertheless, companies can be found that also offer this specialty and make the result look beautiful. In any case, you shouldn't experiment here yourself.

Full throttle with the furry vehicle will be difficult!

In terms of performance and top speed, there is no need to worry as the surface of the vehicle is not really affected, but how the material behaves at higher speeds is open to question. Since the fur cover does not change the main dimensions of the car, no separate entry in the type certificate is necessary, as far as we know. As with a standard foil, you can start directly with the fur foil. Whether cool or not, a very special look is guaranteed in any case.

Proper care is important

Of course, one wonders how such a special foiling can be maintained. This is also a difficult topic, since there is correspondingly little experience. Basically, the material withstands rain and weather to a certain extent. It will not break immediately if the fur cover is exposed to rain. Of course, both the concrete environmental influence and the selected material play a role here.

A grass look is also possible!

A skin is definitely not suitable for permanent outdoor use and should probably be used on show vehicles and Trailer queens to be reserved. If you want to have a nice fur cover even after years, then the vehicle has to be parked in a garage more than used on the street. You can use your own cleaning products, which are also suitable for carpets, etc., for care. However, this also depends very much on the selected material. The best thing to do here is to get advice from an expert on foiling. A fur foil is a very special design that is rarely found on the street. Uniqueness is guaranteed with such a fur cover.

much easier in the interior

Incidentally, the principle of fur-covered surfaces in the cabin is much simpler. Everything that needs to be changed can actually be covered with fur here. You just have to make sure that all knobs and buttons continue to function and that, of course, there are no annoying reflections in the windshield, especially on the dashboard. All windows should still be completely uncovered and you should also keep your hands off the steering wheel, the shift lever/selector lever or the handbrake lever. Not to mention the pedals in the footwell, of course. The rest can largely be changed according to your mood. However, the cigarette lighter in the vehicle should be permanently deactivated.
