Default For you Mooty ;)

Since I couldn't buy your car I decided to make mine look like yours

Well no more teasers everyone! As I stated, I am showing my age and wanted to go with a less race look and I really love this look. I based this theme from the GT3 RSR all white..

Thanks to Lyle at VinylStyles for this awesome Matte White wrap. The attention to detail is awesome!
Thanks to Kirby for the Insane shots!
Thanks to Ben@WheelBoutiques for the new HRE P40 CenterLocks!

Teaser :whistle:

























ok, no more teasing

Just a few and many more to come...

Fred: You're certainly enjoying that car. Is that pearl white matte or just matte white? Looks nice. Gonna show a lot more rubber clag marks than the matte grey

What is the original color? How effective the wrap as a protecting surface?

Freds is Grey, mine is white. It works good enough as protection, but it is not as strong as clear wrap, and mine is yellowing a bit where the car gets very hot, but so does the clear. I did it mostly for protection.. My mirrors, windshield rearspoiler and head lapms are thicker clear wrapped.

1- The car looks beautiful in white (IMO without the Cup wing)!

2- The car is constantly running from one shop to another getting new things, so when do you get to drive it? LOL

Impressive transformation.
From the ridiculous to the sublime?
I never thought I'd have cause to say it, but I like what you've done to your car. : )

I liked the old look, but the new look is great too! Nicely done Fred.

PS- making the splitter and rockers the same as body color (as you did) really looks good on these cars.
