Default Arriving today
After years of dreaming, I finally purchased my first Porsche and its being delivered today. If I get sick of the stealth ppf, is it a pain in the *** to remove?

Nice! I wouldn't call it a pain but it is work. Stealth ppf looks great. I love the matte.

Default Congratulations!
That’s a real beauty, feel free to post more pictures. As far as removing the ppf, I’d just look for a highly recommended
specialist in your area.

Id get as much use out of it as I could while it’s on. I also like the satin look.
Happy motoring !

Looks great. Not hard to remove Stealth, I've done it on my own before with a heat gun. What color is that?

Looking really nice. Congratulations.

Which trim of 911 is this?

Is the matte finish because of the PPF? Thanks.

Like most have said, it is a bit of work (and might require a beer or two) to get it off the vehicle.

Enjoy the car! I like the way it looks with the ppf.

I believe it is the Xpel Stealth. The previous owner had it done and powder coated the wheels bronze.

I was just going through the CPO warranty. Tracking your car voids CPO?
