Default Cooped-up ‘Cuz COVID19 Cabin Fever Thread

With spring upon us and a little thing called “social distancing”, are you doing anything Macan-wise to occupy your time and keep your sanity?

I applied a ceramic coating to my 991 rims last year, so I thought I’d give my Macan summer rims the same treatment before swapping them.

Each coat takes 24 hrs to cure, and I’ll be applying four coats, so this will be a good filler for at least part of the day.

Probably freshen up the coating on my 991 rims before they go back on too.

Wheels and calipers coated with Cquartz. Carpro reload on the rest of the car.

Beautiful, nice job!

My ‘COVID cabin fever’ project is going to be simply replacing the cabin air filter (on order). I put the semi-annual coat of Ultima Paint Guard Plus on my GTS just about 2 weeks ago, so I’m set there for another 6 months.

Waiting for my summer rims to arrive from Germany (on back order), change tires, oil, filter etc. on RS5, ditto on my V8 Touareg as well as lubricate the rear carrier bearing and clear out all the winter emergency gear...

Default Wrapped my wife’s turbo

A couple of years ago I watched a bunch of how to videos of how to do vinyl wrapping on a website called the “Wrap Institute.”

Great instruction. I wanted to learn so that I could apply my own wraps and PPF for my track cars.

Anyway, my wife’s 2015 turbo was Agate Gray and she has always loved British Racing Green. So we ordered some samples from Fellers wrap supply and went with an Avery Dennison Gloss Dark Green.

After about 12 hours, I got‘Er done!

It really came out great and she loves her new color.

Really COOL! Great job and color choice! How much did that set you back? How hard was it?
