Default Show us your 911 that has been wrapped

I'm considering having my 2012 TTS wrapped in vinyl(maybe something close to speed yellow) but wanted to see examples of some 911's that have had this treatment.
If you have had your 911 wrapped and would share your pics, cost, impressions, I would appreciate it.
Thanks
Bill

Here's mine. Paid $1k. Car is Guards red and only done in patches. Didn't want to spend $4k for complete color change including jambs. Was also quoted $3k without jambs but being red would stick out like a sore thumb

Love it! I’m planning to do one of those blues on my car sometime in the future (hopefully next year).

Could you please let me know what color and wrap brand did you go for?

Thanks

Please buy a silver car and then wrap it yellow. That ruby red TTS in your profile pic is beautiful.

I haven't had mine done, yet, but I have been considering it

only thing is the price, like mentioned, its about $3k for just the wrap, and with door jambs etc it can get up to $6k

this would be professionally done though

Are you guys afraid of the wrap installers cutting the paint during application?

nope, go to a pro shop, you don't have to worry about anything, tons of people local had their cars plasti-dipped/wrapped/painted here, never heard a horror story

some of the cars that show up for sale that were "home made" or DIY'd will make you think twice tho haha

Nice wrap jobs, i'm thinking about selling mine and moving to a 992 so wouldn't dare wrap it, would create probs when selling it

What are you guys doing w the rear wing? I talked to a shop here in Atlanta and they said the shape of the wing is too complex to wrap. They wanted to paint it!
