This is 3M 'Intense Blue'. It's the one that has tempted me, although my starting point was the more violet-tinged Porsche Voodoo Blue.

I am partial to Sepang Blue, but am not a matte fan. I do love the look of the Intense Blue -- nice! I would certainly be different, but not "that different" if you know what I mean.

thanks for this. PM or post more pics.

Funny that almost everything is a variant of blue .... I like darker reds but my wife drives a dark red RR

this is an interesting opinion, but why? Is there something negative about wraps? I’m not trying to hide anything

also, matte or satin seems to be a factory option these days, not sure how widely at Porsche.... note: I like Satin but I think Matte is over done the last few years

matte is terrible from a cleanliness and upkeep perspective, dusk clings to it like crazy and one accidental brush/streak with something and it's all over.

also if you like reds perhaps the oracal cranberry shift color could work for you. just google it and you can see some examples.
