Default White GT3 with Stripe Kit

So the first thing to do when the car arrived was install XPEL ultimate:
Front Bumper
Fog Lights (no headlights)
Full Hood
A-Pillars
Mirrors
Doors
Full roof
Rocker Panels with textured paint coverage
Then I installed Clearplex on the windshield. Be patient when ordering. Took 2 weeks to get it.

Then I contacted Kyle Isable at KIstudios.com and he told me that they had Matte Platinum Gray with red trim as an option for stripe kit 008. It's a little more expensive since it's technically a wrap and is a dry install. The dry install was so much easier to do than the wet installation.

The Matte Platinum matches the wheels and the red ties in the calipers and red stitching.

I also added a matte black windshield strip with a gloss Porsche text.

The car also has the Sharkwerks bypass.

Now here are the pics...

Congratulations!
I'm not a huge fan of stripes but I like what you've done.

Thanks everyone... I don't mind at all if you use the same design. I copied the white scuderia I saw locally. Call Kyle at KIStudios for special material (isn't listed on the site).

And I LIKE the red with gold as well. Very nice color combo! Never would have thought of that.

Install doesn't take more than an hour or two depending on how good the installer is. We did a white one about 5 months ago too similar to the OP's car:

It took me 2.5 hours to install the kit. First thing I did was run a nylon string from the nose to the tail in order to find the center. Then taped it down in various places in order to slide the decals under it and align properly. Then placed tape on the decals to hold them in place and did the flip process, where you lift half, peel, spray solution (baby soap/water solution). Kyle has videos on his site on installation details.

The wet install is the most critical, which is the trim. The center decal was a wrap material, which made it MUCH easier to install. Most of the time was spent on alignment, and careful cutting of the edges to wrap around.

As long as you are detail oriented and patient, it's not technically difficult. Have a clean/sharp blade and break off after each cut.







Hope that helps.
