YouTuber Mo Vibes has gone viral after using around $100,000 worth of Louis Vuitton bags to wrap his “mini G-Wagon” replica.
In his YouTube video, Mo revealed how dozens of brand-new Louis Vuitton bags, each costing around $3,000, were ripped apart and cut into patches to cover the boxy SUV. A typical professional wrap costs between $3,200 and $4,500, but this project pushed that figure into six-digit territory.
Instead of vinyl, Mo and his friends relied on superglue to attach the thick leather to the vehicle. Over three days, they covered the entire replica in brown Louis Vuitton leather, creating a unique — if imperfect — finish.

The choice of car played a major role in making the wrap possible. Leather is inflexible and difficult to mold around curves, but the smaller replica’s box-like design made the process easier. Its smaller size also meant fewer bags were required than a full-size Mercedes G-Wagon, which would have cost significantly more.

The final result
While some areas of the vehicle are already showing signs of the glue losing adhesion, the project still stands out as one of Mo’s boldest creations.

“There’s some glue coming apart, but it’s fine, it works,” he said. “Some of the leather is coming off, the glue has to be done again. We live in a hot country, of course, the glue is going to melt.”
The YouTuber didn’t reveal what type of car the “mini G-Wagon” really was, but it appears to be a Suzuki Jimny, a small SUV that is commonly converted to resemble a Mercedes.
