I have heard of them being easily broken so I didn't bother trying to remove them, just carefully masked them off.

Basalt black!

I was originally looking for an entire clear bra but they don't offer that service, only front clear bra, so I went with a wrap. Feels good to have protection! The car is mint, "brand new" in condition without a single stone chip basically and I plan on keeping it that way.

I still think that the 997 pulls off this blue color better, but the 996 is close and mine being an aero package car makes it great!

It's hexis Olympic blue, as Mexico blue as it gets. Yes, gloss!

Just got home, will take better pics as soon as weather clears up.

Very cool, I bet it will keep much cleaner than flat colors

Thanks guys

They didn't do door jams and under hood etc, no need as it would cost more than a regular paint job.

Dropped engine and replaced fuel hose that was chewed on by rodents with a custom stainless steel braided hose. Let's see if they can chew thru that lol.
