i’m getting my car tinted on Saturday. The tint laws have changed in New Hampshire. I’m taking full advantage.

You should also consider doing your hood, front quarter panels, and mirrors if you plan to put any amount of miles on the car.

Yes. Great idea. I will do it. This car is a long term keeper.
Thanks.
it looks like the rear fenders have the protective plastic on it already.

That's probably the OEM film on the rear panel flares. I'm sure they have "yellowed" by now.

Great color and spec!! Same as my Turbo S.

GT Silver with the Bordeaux Red / Black / Carbon Fiber.

Mine even has the 5 lug wheels like yours too. I bought a spare set in Black.

This is absurd and the whole clear side marker thing has gotten way out of hand……you should be testing nitrogen-filled clear side markers to offset the weight imbalance.

those wheels look awesome. Drove me turbo tonight for the 3rd time. I am amazed how it handles and how much power it has. The pdk is so smooth too.

Yes, I'm serious. PPF the ENTIRE front end, WITH the windshield.
With my Flat and Happy group, we kill the canyons and always mid pack to the back. It's always necessary. I even did the headlights as my wrapper says dont worry about delamination as it's the removal process that does it. I added black rear stone guards and I like it as it adds contrast. I realize some here will not like it, but heck it's my car.

The clear side markers always add 8 mph and 3 hp. dont let them tell you otherwise.

UCC? If so, note that they don’t do the windshield film (that is a different material from that used on paint.) At least they didn’t as of a year ago.

Congrats! For the windshield you can't use the same PPF as on the paint. Exoshield is what I put on just before a 500 mile road rally this past weekend. Worked like a champ protecting the glass from chips and it's fine with wipers and you can ceramic over it making everything slide off (bugs and rain drops). $550 for the windshield is pretty typical but not a lot of authorized installers.
