Is it possible to wrap my 1500
Absolutely! We had Union Graphic Co. in Hurricane, UT do the wrap on Brian’s (in the picture above. They’ve done multiple other X1500s as well. Here’s a few more pictures of it.

Is the wrap durable I go through a lot of brush and my side get scratched up.
In 2006ish I had one of the first Rangers that came with paint.
Our friends had a 500 and had it wrapped in camo, they were always trying new stuff and had the first one I seen. I was very apprehensive about our painted Ranger and thought the wrap would be a joke because In that time frame we were blazing trails at Windrock, Ashland, Hatfield , and others. We literally drove through uncut underbrush.
To my delighted surprise after a couple years our paint showed little abuse but our friends wrap looked great.
The only issues with early wraps was something to do with water quality as there were numerous folks wrap turned pinkish purple.
Wondering if the even still dip the panels in water vats ?

It’s been reasonably durable. It’s been driven through brushes and willows and such with no visible damage. Granted he’s a little more careful about the track he chooses with it over the stock machines, but it’s holding up better than expected. There is some small damage to the wrap from things like accidentally hooking the tailgate over the ball hitch wit the bed raised, and someone not being careful pressure washing it. But it still looks great overall.

We’ve not seen any discoloration on any of the wraps Union Graphics has done for us. We’ve used tap water at the shop as well as car washes with no issues.

Sorry, not the water used to wash it , the first ones I knew of they floated the film on top a vat of water and lifted the part up through it to apply the film. It was 18 years ago in the early stages. Actually, even some of the early Polaris OEM wraps faded to pink.
What ever caused it must have been remidyed, I haven't seen on turn on a long time.

You're machine looks great
 
Looks good. I always kind of wondered how well wraps hold up in brush. I see wrapped machines on the Oregon Dunes when I was into that, but haven’t really seen any machines wrapped in person that spend a lot of time in the woods or brush.

I had a friend got one of the very early versions 18 years ago when we blazed trails at Windrock. Back then they called them dipped , maybe a different process. I thought the briers would destroy it but it held up extremely well.

That’s good to know. I’m worried that the Polaris camo will turn to the purple/pink color over time. The dealer told me that doesn’t happen now. But I thought if it did, I could try a wrap if needed.
