Interesting. You see a lot of matte finishes on cars in Europe. Not so much here in the USA.

FYI. You can OptiCoat or CQuartz on top of the film. You should consider this for easy care.

I can't imagine owning a high end car and not having a garage.

Magic, I'm happy to hear that there won't be a YouTube video of your 911 careening down a street in Knightsbridge! I've never heard of the "urban fox". This is something that happens in London?

Yeah. I think it's just a regular fox that lives in a city. Obviously it's also left-leaning politically and has good dress sense.

I want to see a picture of the fox! Next time she graces your hood, tell her to get a manicure.

Normally I dislike these applications...you're GTS seems to be the exception to the rule!

Stealthy look? I don't thinks so. It is a looker. Very nice indeed.

Here's a link to some more pictures from the detailer

The funny thing is that driving it around I get way fewer looks now (though they were all positive-type looks) than I got when it was black. The grey seems to act like an invisibility cloak...

What do they charge to wrap a car in 3m?

Just saw this thread. Looks sweet. I like Any recent sightings of the left leaning urban fox?? I hear they multiply quickly and are contagious.

If you keep parking the wrong way on the street you'll keep getting scratches.
The wrap looks amazing! I would considered. Love London!

One of the few times when I can say that "It looks great".

The next thing to polish if your hunting gun.
