Im assuming / hoping the Turbo comes stock with some clear film on the lower 1/4 panels.

I don't want to wrap my car as I dont care for the look but it wouldn't hurt to have some film on the lower 1/4 panels

Does the car come with any film from the factory..

That's the rear fender, in front of the rear wheel, below the intercooler duct. Nothing on the front fender/fascia

My car the whole car is wrapped in clear. Cost is 10k protects the paint from stone chips and eliminates. Car has 11k on it and no paint damage. Makes the car very easy to keep clean and protected.

I am doing full wrap (my first) as well to protect the 4-stage paint and increase my enjoyment through less worry. The stone guard from the factory is way too small and made of "cheap" material that will yellow over time. I always remove it and have a larger piece of film installed.

72offsuit just a note of experience...std expel or the like has insufficient resilience to replace the stock side fore wheel tabs...unfortunately ask me how I know...I tried replacing the stock material last year and it lasted maybe a few months...I recently purchased the stock replacement materials (not cheap) but have not yet re-installed..I don't think I have an image of hoe the aftermarket guard looks now but I'll look..(the car is garaged for the season and not accessible)
