rockitman - I recommend a Pro.. Preparation is the key and that is what takes up 75% of the time and most crucial aspect to the procedure. I did Cquartz but I garage queen my car and store it for the Winter. Opti-coat even more extreme and for the DD year-round probably the better choice.

Just realized. There's metal,
then paint to protect the metal,
then clear-coat to protect the paint,
then clear-bra to protect the clear-coat,
then opti-coat to protect the clear-bra.

What's protecting the opti-coat?

Yes, all is good in the world. I was getting worried there for a second.

As far as I know I'm the first 15 to show up here. Been waiting a long time. Never faltered never fretted over color for me it's always been black
Have a 997.1 gt3 gt silver. Will post the differences that I feel as soon as it's delivered
Did your GT3 arrive today as expected? I have a Jet Black Metallic on order myself and I am looking forward to seeing some pictures and hearing your feedback.
