Hi Rennlisters'-
I just posted this on the 6Speed forum, but thought you guys would want to check this thing out too. It's crazy.
Hi guys-
When I was picking up my recent 991 purchase from my local Minneapolis Porsche dealer they had an absolutely sick 918 getting a full Xpel wrap. This car is nuts. This car is one of one. The paint is not paint and decals. It's actually painted like this from the factory. This is based on the 1970 917 Longtail with a similar paint scheme they dubbed the "hippy" car. Unreal. The salesman wouldn't say exactly, but eluded to a near quarter million dollar paint job.
Thought you guys would like a shot. (Somehow I only got one picture)!

Nice, but what happens when the local PCA Chapter reassigns his #13 dedicated number to another member?

More info ... I'll stick with solid colors
I'm not sure who I would trust to put film on that car. What happens if you ever need a panel painted? Ship it back to Germany?

It was at Rennsport and I thought it was very cool.
I understand that the special paint request had to go all the way to the Board for approval. Crazy.
