Footsoldier’s scheme now belongs to history, whereas yours is contemporary. Overall color scheme is terrific, but you may wish to consider less sponsor emblems to allow the car to appear as your personal taste.

^good point on sponsor emblems ,
personally as an adult who is still working toward that point of maturity , my car sports mobil one and michelin logos for the official wanna be race car look ,
although not sponsored I exclusively use those products , my wing end plate "mobile one " and Michelin man running Vector logo waving at you on my rear apron as I pass you . (a fellow here has a Plate frame reading "Thanks for the point By " I love that concept and courtesy )
If those companies would like to pay my track fees I'm all in . In the meantime it maybe poser of me but the smile that look brings me I don't worry be happy deal .
perhaps a more subtle presentation for streetability speaking

With the Martini livery an integral and extremely well recognized part of Porsche history the use on a modern car is an homage to honor the past. Sponsor emblems appropriate to the livery are integral to the presentation. I was making the suggestion that with a modern livery the presentation and interpretation is different.

Pretty cool. What is the ball-park cost of this? Happy for you or NS to PM if that is a rude question.

Yes I saw your post previously - I wanted the look of the GT3 R with a twist to maximise the Lizard Green, which was my brief to Anthony - really pleased with the end result and hope you get what you want too

Not rude at all, but will let NS2 respond to you - it is certainly value for money in my book

For those asking - this will be vinyl rather than painted - need to be able to revert back to standard if needed in future.

Typically now a days it is vinyl over the clear PPF, that way you can actually remove the vinyl and still maintain the PPF on the car with no graphics.

+1. Too many times do we see a customer tire of a design whether it be a full wrap or stripe design and want to change it up within a year or so even if they thought they'd want to keep it forever. When it's on top of the clear, it is super easy to remove and replace. When underneath, you have to replace the entire wrap.

Also, in the car of this Porsche Motorsport design with the contrast between the gloss and matte materials, a clear bra would distort this and make it not as special.

Indeed Robbie, the car is already protected with full PPF, so the vinyl will be applied on top.

Why not the other way around?
doesnt the vinyl need some protection?

Im asking because I once (double) vinyl wrapped my car flat white but I do some tracking and pretty much the back half of the car went from yellow to orange to brown.

Personally if if I get 4 years out of the bra, I don’t mind redoing the car.

NS2 guys;
PM or Email me for an idea about cost of your design and application at my AC place in Palm Beach.
