Default 911 Turbo - Riviera Blue Wrap
How about picking up a 997 Mezger monster and putting on a Riviera Blue wrap - classic 993 Turbo style.

Interested to hear people's experiences with this sort of thing...

Sounds like a great idea to me. I want to change mine to a glossy blue but it's expensive here and I don't trust any vendors here.

You will not be disappointed with 997.1TT manual, and I can't wait to see your blue wrap. I am debating whether to do clear Xpel film or Mexico blue wrap. You first and I will follow

I've thought about this too...how much is a wrap and how long do they last?

The thing about wraps is they just don't seem to shine like paint, nor are they as durable, as paint. But, they are reversible.

For $4,000, though, I would just wait for the right color to come along ...

Gloss intense blue shines just like regular paint.

Wow. I stand corrected.

Maybe I've been around cars that didn't use quality wrap.
