I couldn't be more pleased! Compliments of SkinzWraps in Dallas. This is their newest carbon fiber look material, and man is it sweet! Now I just need to get my wheels powder coated

i was considering getting my car wrapped, but couldn't find any good pics of 911s outside of matte black and matte white. i really dig the carbon fiber look. very unique. i assume it's textured?

Yeah not my flavor either... But overall it is a neat concept.

It really fits well. Is the fit as good as it appears in the pic?

That one looks kinda bat mobile-ish

This is their new custom wrap material. It's so new that my GT3 is the first Porsche to get wrapped with it in the US. It takes 2 days to install and, well, it's not the cheapest wrap they can do I believe a basic wrap is between $2000-$3000.

As for maintenance, simple wash and it's like brand new. Makes for easy upkeep.

It comes off without any harm to the paint (think clear bra).
