Default Xpel installation at Shine Auto!

bkrantz, thanks for allowing us to do your Xpel installation! We are glad that you are happy with it. The color combo with a manual gearbox is just outstanding!

Enjoy a few images we took of your vehicle right before it left our facility.

Been waiting since Jan... but first post in this thread.

Had a April 21 delivery date on my c4s but now pushed back to May 12

Dealer was telling me delays caused by CARB regulations and what not. Anyone getting the same reason for delay?

Here is my spec:

I have a C4S coming to Canada with the same delivery time frame of April 21st. But I haven't heard of any delays on my build yet.

I heard CARB delays were for the Panamera. The 991.2's were already approved for CARB right?

I have a C4 coming to Canada as well - delivery end of the first week of May. I haven't heard of any delays, but that doesn't mean there won't be.

I see a few posts on this thread talk about the Sport-tex seats, with darkknight26 posting some pretty nice close ups. Anyone else get these seats, and what's your experience so far? I've ordered it on my C2, but haven't been able to see/feel them as the dealers in my area have either sold their inventory with the seats, or are still on order.

To the guys at Shine: you made it easy and delivered high quality results. Nice enough to fool a friend of mine who is VERY experienced with top end paint and restoration. He did not notice the film until I pointed it out, and even then could not see a difference between adjacent panels with and without Xpel.

Did the side mirrors and back Porsche and model text come off for the xpel wrap?

It's always funny...how they say "vehicle entered body shop", in reality, nothing enters body shop, vehicle comes out!

WOW!
And why couldn't Porsche tell us that? A number of us have called them and if this news is true that means they simply lied to us. That's crazy.
