I have the car in the picture next to my name

You might want to stop "advertising" as such as you'll fall foul of the moderators.

Steve,

As much as I like it to be orange, I am going to say Riviera Blue...

here is one of a friends car... personally, i think the only colour to suit a 964 from that list is the blue.

orange and green - it just doesnt work IMHO...

The wrap just doesn't have the shine or color depth that paint does. It kind of looks like orange peal. But for a track car I do see the appeal ( no pun)

Default Car Wrap UPDATE

Well after a very long time I finally went ahead and got my Guards Red 964..(paint work was looking tired).. wrapped.....couldnt decide on a colour so went for something very individual...the colour is similar to riveria blue but the finish is matt not gloss...and looks stunning in my opinion in the flesh......I know it wont be everyones cup of tea but i am very happy with it.(.thats what matters)...the car stands out....the finish can be removed or replaced at any time...with no damage to the original paint work

Very cool. You must be the only one on the planet. Just thinking of doing a matt translucent wrap over the guards red. May look good.

Very cool, reminds me of a finished Easter egg.

Do you have pics of the details; edges and such? Did they wrap the door jambs and everything, or just the outwardly visible portions of the car?

Thanks for sharing.
