Congrats on the car!! Great color because I got the same, LOL. Love your CF mirrors. Was thinking of doing the same or similar set of mirrors.

No I did it done with Granite auto here in town. Not happy with the results.

How did yours turn out?

I had Premier do my last Porsche and may have them redo this one.

I'm happy with my bra/tint job from pro-tect. When I took my car in, my car was the cheapest car there. There was a 599, turbo S, and a panamera turbo being done. What didn't you like about granite's work? The only thing I didn't like about pro-tect is that they charge a lot. Just tell them you have a quote from eco tint and they will match it. Eco tint does good work too from what I've heard.

great looking car!!! Your mirrors are cool. I have almost an exact twin car to yours but I don't have the mirrors & clear taillights. Ive noticed a few GTS owners on this site have already changed their wheels out, will you be changing yours?

If I change it I would change it to 5 lugs.

I asked Granite to do a custom seamless bra. They did that for the hood.
The rest was cut from a kit. Now that it has been on for over a year the dirt along the edges is noticeable. Additionally, the film for the mirrors never was completely right and after three tries I just gave up and pulled it off.

I don't mind paying for quality work. I will check pro-tect.
