Thanks again guys. Gives me reassurance I went the right direction with this one.

@Deckard- front end only if I even do. However, I think I would add the high gloss side inlets to the coverage and considering the area under it as it comes from factory with a smaller clear bra, but then- where the heck do I stop? My history with my ‘16 for 7400 mikes was maybe and I mean maybe 1-2 teeny bumper chips from pebbles but much more “scuff” in the side inlets. Rocker panels and everything else was pretty darn clean. I think full car is overkill. Financially as well. If I go with anything, I decided on Clearguard Nano SR or Premium Shield. Apparently the two top and clearest films.

I would think at this point you’ll be getting an ‘18 unless car was built and sitting for some reason?

Thank you. That is absolutely spot on! I actually changed the order to Carrera white/Bordeaux-black and then changed it back shortly before lock in knowing I’m either going to love it, or it’s going to be a very expensive mistake.

I had planned on having the wheels painted black but my initial thought is- I think I like the wheels like they are.

That one I am not sure of. I’ve seen the panamera chalk with that combo and it’s not bad. Depends on the look you are going for. Although my combo was balsy sight unseen, I think the Bordeaux with chalk might be a bigger gamble but also sharper if it works.

Well thank you. Yes I will post them. I’m on the iPhone now and if I upload pics from it they appear sideways for some odd reason. I only have a few initial ones.

I will say this - the pictures do not do it justice by any means. It’s quite striking in person. It’s got a regalness to it. Especially with the Espresso.
