Thanks all for all the positive comments. To answer some of the questions that have come up in this thread:

-Yes, the car was delivered through Porsche of Main Line. Hands down the best dealer experience I've ever had. Can't say enough kind things about Paul N. who runs the show there. If you're going to buy a Porsche, he's the guy to work with.

-I had initially requested PTS Fashion Grey and the timing didn't work out. The car is white underneath the wrap.

-The wrap cost is actually very similar to the PTS cost. I had all the door jambs and other bits wrapped fully as well. In essence you don't see any 'white' when you open the doors, etc.

-I initially wanted a Chicane Grey wrap color (McLaren color code) but that was not available so I landed on this color.

-The yellow was selected to match the brake calipers, the fluorescent light in the showroom and the shadows under the dark wheel make them appear different in some photos. Hopefully it'll be better in natural sunlight.

-The key fob shells were swapped for OEM yellow as well.

-Both turn signal indicators are clear. It's yellow in that last pic b/c that was taken prior to the swap.

-With regards to side graphics in yellow, I have contemplated it but will need to see how it looks in person before adding more yellow accents.

Thanks all and let me know if you have any other questions. Look forward to posting more pics this weekend!

Yes this is a 'no cuts on car' wrap. All the pieces are pre-cut prior to installation and no knives are used on the car. I can't stand swirl marks in the paint due to the normal washing process, so applying the wrap at delivery keeps the paint underneath as new as possible. Yes you can have them remove the wrap easily if you want to switch colors or go back to OEM color. This was done by a shop sourced by my sales manager at Mainline. I can get the shops name if you're interested.

Curious with these wraps as well as the clear wraps. What happens when the car sits outside in AZ @ 127F or in Dubai for couple summers? Will it come out ?
