Rear is wrapped and new Porsche GT4 badges ordered


Front is still to be wrapped. I'm starting to like the murdered and shaved look. Wonder if anyone makes a black matte Porsche crest...

Looks great. My black GT4 is due in Jan. Haven't had a black car in 22 yrs....

Tint spec?

Also would be interested in any wrap 'learnings' that may be specific to a black car.

Thanks!

I had my white GT4 and my white Cayman track car wrapped by the guys at Unique. They are true professionals in the field of wrapping cars. Working in tandem with the detailing shop they share their space with, it's one-stop-shopping for paint correction, quartz coatings, and clear wraps that are as good or better than anyone in the country. And Rick, the owner, has a gorgeous CWM Cayman GTS. He's a brother!

I've encountered too many douche bags driving the aforementioned car. Even though I am getting black, it will be anything but murdered out

The GT4 does look good without the wing

Love Black that would be my next choice
Now that there are Clear Films I would consider it for sure, but only if the whole car is covered
Its gonna look awesome I hope your getting the platinum wheels

It's not my thing either. I'd feel like I'm trying to be something I'm not.

That and I'm not partial to the look. I like some contrast. I'd do silver wheels but I am hoping the platinum hides the break dust better. Wishing I could get the wing supports in silver too. That looks awesome!

That is a very nice look also !!! silver and sliver but no silver uprights now
I guess you could have them PC? They are a bit involved to take off but not anything more then time consuming (ask me how I know )
