Alright - CR GT4 is just getting finished up getting the treatment. Tint, Paint correction, PPF, wheels were removed and sprayed and cooked with Modesta, 2 Coats of Cquartz, and some Subtle Vinyl Right now they are just baking the exterior a little and will sit and cure overnight and will pick up in AM. Once again, Chicago Auto Pros exceeded all expectation. It is killing me just looking at the car. Look at the freakin shine on her. Looks like Candy

Looks very good, delicious...

Are you says the wheels get Modesta, 2 Coats of Cquartz, and Subtle Vinyl? Can you say more about that? Does the wheel treatment keep the gloss level the same as OE?

The wheels were taken off, cleaned, prepped, and sprayed with Modesta. They then put them under a heat lamp for a specified amount of time.. This does keep a nice gloss level but, most importantly, will not collect as much brake dust and grim and will make cleaning simple. Basically you just use car soap and water and will come right off and will last a few years. It was inexpensive to do and have heard it has good results so will see. But I do have PCCBs so I am not expecting much brake dust.

3M Crystalline 40 - Very clear looking from the insde out, even at night, which is important. I do not think I would do any darker

Is the Porsche crest on the wheel a factory option? Love it!
