Great to see such meticulous work.
I have a quick question. Have you done a full correction on a black GT4/Spyder? I've heard that the paint was soft but my detailer here in NJ said the paint is hell to work with and marks even when removing polish. The plan was to do a full correction, then XPEL Ultimate on the front bumper, hood, front fenders, mirrors, A-pillars and impact area behind the rear wheels and then do two layers of MOHS+ topped with phobic and cure. I'm wondering if doing film on the whole car is a better solution considering the paint is so soft. Or is my car an anomoly?

It has been a minute since our last update! We've been a bit slammed though we have worked on a number of GT4's since our last update.
Can wait to sort the countless images of that full custom project and share them. But for now, this will have to do for a different white GT4 that visited us. It got our track package clear bra wrap with Xpel Ultimate and came out looking incredible! When the owner picked it up he couldn't contain himself because he said it was so hard to see any traces of film at all. Another success story.

If you've not checked out our article what to do while you wait, take the time to read it. Lots of fun stuff around Atlanta.

My car is now with Jean-Claude for a track wrap before the drive home tomorrow.
UPDATE: Got my car back from Jean-Claude and his team Saturday pm after installation of a XPEL track wrap. They worked on it until past midnight Friday to make it possible for me to get the car in time to drive home Saturday. J-C and his guys are not only very good at what they do but are great people to deal with. Highly recommended, especially if you do the PEC delivery since they're only 30 minutes from there.

Saw your car sitting there under a cover waiting for you when I picked mine up today. Awesome experience, you're going to love it.

We snagged a shot of your baby getting ready for our track package clear bra wrap too.
It was a shame we never shot any afters once it was complete!

Friday at 3pm she was at the Porsche Experience Center. Saturday at 5pm she was on her way home to Ohio with our track package plus. Read more here

Mine is the white GT4 that was delivered at the PEC on Friday and then tracked packaged by J-C and his team before our trip back to Cincinnati.
I highly recommend both! PEC experience was first class all the way with the highlight being the 90 minutes of track time in their GT4. J-C and his team at DD are at the top of their game - true craftsman focused on excellence in finished product and customer experience - not always easy to find these days. I have had several cars clear bra'd over the years and by far this is the best. Thanks JC!
