My freeze point is in 2 days...placed order 8/1. Not even half way there.
I went V200 on 27 JUL, with a change to my Spec on 4 SEP. I was originally supposed to go V250 on 12 OCT, but found out on Friday that was bumped up a couple weeks. If you haven't bugged your SA in a while, you might get some good news!
I read pages of threads on PPF. But I wanted to ask this group (since I like this group) about your thoughts on full vs partial coverage. What you think is practically worth the cost.

If you are considering PPF, that means you are somewhat OCD about the cars. I would say bite the bullet and do Full. It'll be worth the costs down the road. The last thing you want to worry about is the edges/line showing because of dirts/grims are making it visible.

+1 especially since white.
I did the track package for my car with Expel and you can see a dark line along the edges. irritates me. Other colers may not be as visible.
Also tell them not to do the inside of the turbo outlets behind rear wheel, just stop at flat surface of bumper. If it peels there, dirt get under the film and it looks terrible.
Glad to find another 911T thread. Just put about 500 miles on my T. I posted in another thread about PPF and I thank @jkyrennist for helping me out here with my question on another 911T thread. I'm set up to do a full front PPF except half fenders (so basically front fascia, hood and front half of fenders). Any thoughts or strong feeling about this? Car owners I hang around with swear by Xpel but I really wanted fellow T owner's opinions about this. Worth it?
Also, for some reason the tint installer was saying that installation might be different because of the light-weight glass. Didn't make sense to me and wondering if anyone had issues/concerns about tinting specifically due to the properties of the glass on the T.
PPF is absolutely worth it IMO. If a future owner wants more “patina” the film can come off. The problem is you don’t get to choose your patina. Big rock chips right where you see them all the time, no thanks..

as long as its glass its no different, just ease up on the heat.
experienced installers don’t use a lot of heat any way
Hi T friends,
I watched a track event last weekend (it was an Audi Club event ...and, I haven't gone through DE yet)... Anyways, I am next year planning to enter the slippery slope of DE, and see how far it goes.
a) Anyone interested in opening a thread in the racing and drivers education forum for discussing Tracking T's?
b) How many folks plan to track their T?
Now that I've seen and felt (in the passenger seat) the forces/wear and tear that occur on the track. My T is my (weekend) baby, and I am wondering about whether to get over it (i.e. drive the T), or pick up a CPO Audi TTS (less speed, cheaper parts) for a daily driver and/or track toy. (Please don't turn this into a Audi TTS understeer thread.)

I had all sides and rear tinted, no problem. Just use an experienced installer.

I have the DSC box, contacted them today and asked how I can change damper parameters under breaking to reduce front dip. They said, send us input file and we will modify it for you. Great service.
I am also working with TPC on their 991 harness bar, but since I dont have rear seats (LWB) there is an additional attachment point I need to verify.
Brakes, plan to upgrade to 350mm, talked with Girodisc about stud kit, spacers atc. I have 350mm I used on my 996 and this weeknd I will measure rotor thickness and hat offset so see if they fit. Once I conclude my research I will post in the race track thread.
