Here is an update on the Martini graphics design for my car ... I hope to have this tribute livery finished in time for the Monterey Parade in June.
Any input on the location of the Martini Logo is welcome ... the back window, front hood or back lid? (Not my car in the 1st photo below)

993TT getting a full wrap in Rivi Blue (not the actully color but looks darn close)... This was just completed recently. I think it looks amazing and giving me some ideas! lol! Great way to get that "super rare" color that you've been lusting after... ;-)
These guys have it down and do some amazing work....

I heard this was very challenging from our local wrap guy who's top notch and wrapped my friend's C4S in Riv Blue.
Please post more pics of the finished product!

relative to other cars, how hard is the 993 to wrap for a pro?

Very difficult I've been told if you don't have some 993 experience, esp if your trying to avoid seams or simply hiding as many seams as possible.
Take for example the front fenders, imagine taking a one piece material and wrapping it around the front headlights with no seams. The way the material is going to be stretched without leaving a ripple in another section requires some pro skills.
Example, you will see most clear bra protection films (full fender wrap) have a seam in front of the headlight. Ok on a clear bra, not so appealing when your doing a color change wrap.
Pre 993 like 964s will be even more challenging!

Why are you rushing me into a decision? It has only been 3 1/2 years since I started thinking about it and I'm enjoying your suggestion updates.
Hobby car stuff happens slowly at our house since Alex was born (4 years now). For the last month there has been the misfire code. Next will be the front bumper. This year I've replaced two foglight lenses, and a third is cracked, in about 3000 miles. So I have decided to change to the turbo S ducts and lights with white corners and bumperette delete. While the car is in the body shop I'll have them replace the driver's side rear quarter window glass and lower trim and fix the sunroof (seals backwards and sunroof won't open). Both of those issues are from the botched 2009 repaint.
One day I'll have a pic of my car something like this with a Jager inspired stripe.
