Default Took my Prozac and went for PPF

So in a happy land far, far, away, Winnie (my RS nickname after Winnie Harlowe) had a lovely date together. Her in her mismatched stitch and me with my "Rennlist's Fav" shirt on.









The date went well.
Couple interesting bits from PPF. The gorilla glass will not accept tinting. My installer recommended against doing the lights. Third, the GT2RS's carbon side vents are made in China while the plastic ones from the 3RS are made in Germany. Kind of amusing. Later in day did some 25-85 mph runs to break in motor up to 7.5k. Motor is def different than prior and PDK is much different. Throttle mapping is also much "longer" than .1. Car is definitely quieter than my .1 RS even with GMG bypass on both. I'm probably going to do the GMG race headers.

Did you do paint correction prior to bra?

What brand bra you went with?

I think the. black housing headlights would go well with the miami blue and black accents from all the exterior parts plus black wheels.

The car looks awesome from the outside, Ray Ban polarized can help you mitigate the interior disaster and they are cheaper and healthier than Prozac.

i found China shocks in my 991 Turbo S, not fond on that, I found China parts in my last 2 Ferraris.

Now I wonder if all these different delays on Carbon fiber already paid parts (for us WP owners) have to do with Chinese manufacturing delays or lack of quality (which usually go together on their products).

Miami Blue looking good. A color that shows differently as the light changes. Congrats on getting PPF done. Curious - the gg does. Or accept tint? Presume it won't adhere? What type of tint was being attempted (brand)?

Seeing the "Made in China" CF must have necessitated a Prozac dosage increase

Looking good!

CF was from GT2RS side vents. I did the Obsessed Garage protocol. Car had full decon with Citrus wash and Kranzle pressure washer with Carpro incredimitt. Iron X, Clay mitt/bar with lube, and dry. Sonax perfect finish with Rupes orbital. Car pro eraser followed by Grtechniq CSL and then 2 coats of GTechniq EXo v4 on the non -PPF areas. Wheels were Iron Xed, and coated with C5 GTechniq. After 48 hours I'll coat the PPF areas with GTechniq after wash and Eraser wipe down.
