Pinnacle Ceramic. 25% is max in TX and I always use the same all the way around so it looks uniform.

Luckily it's rubber.. If you approach slowly you should be able to feel the resistance of the lip before touching the actual bumper no?

Great looking car - congrats. I have a '14 black - curious if you did the tint install yourself and how long it took? I am thinking about adding to my car before the spring and warmer weather arrives. How is the heat reflection of the ceramic tint? Thanks!

Put ceramic on all my cars--it's the best at heat reduction.

Have it done by the local experts here in Austin--they are amazing.

Two polish coats (with blue 6" electric buffer) and wax coat...all the reasons I love black

Like a mirror--Porsche did a great job on the paint job. Zero (almost) orange peel. One of the best paint jobs I've seen.

You've got a lovely car in black! I so admire your motivation in keeping that black paint clean and perfect! I've had my share of black cars (still have two) but swear I just don't have the patience to put up with all their hassles; especially the unavoidable road rash that peppers the front end, swirl marks, dust, etc., etc., etc.

The peppering of the front hood, bumper, roof, and rockers just behind the front doors on 911s is impossible to avoid. I ordered Sapphire Blue...

Congrats!
