i thought you did the hood/wing/roof!? and cowls?!

/tangent...I'm from nyc ( probably explains a lot!? hah ) but i remember weather all we have here is sun and some kind of weird fake clouds ha..

i was gonna do mine white/blk like yours! ( sorry ) kinda like a less copied gt2rs look ( only cheap lol ) when i did mine i swear there weren't two two tone arctic/blk.. now there's like 5 within a cpl miles of me lol not saying it like that matters. but i just wanna find my car in a parking lot! and theres literally a 100 911's per sq mile here. the white was always what i was gonna do but that was gonna be a full wrap. but your car has convinced me the two tone is the look

I did do it all. I meant you. Nevermind.
There is no turbos in my area. I see a yellow one maybe once a year. Otherwise none. People look at it like it's a Ferrari f40 sometimes

you did what i thought ya did... and the reason i'd like to do the same. it's the same look and bits I've done but mine is slvr/blk and again, always wanted to do white as the main wrap, w blk accents as we both have. some might say the hood is overkill, but i think it makes it "work".

i think it looks great. job well done.

I did mine on my new-to-me Turbo. It was a much longer process then I anticipated, taking me about 2 months of part-time work. Maybe around 50 hours or so. First time ever doing anything like it.

Anyway, I think it came out pretty well. Certainly not perfect, but looks pretty spectacular. Still need to get some more pics...

I ended up plasti-diping the scoop and the mirrors. I messed around a couple of times with wrapping the scoop and gave up.

They are a son of a *****. That's for sure. I don't see how the scoop can be a single piece I ended up doing a seam inside the scoop so the entire face would be one piece.

I did the same. the wrap doesn't take to the curvature of scoops, as easily as the spraycan does.


only issue ive seen is my plastidipped mirrors have immediately rock chipped but I drive in rubble so its to be expected.

Can you guys give some insight on how you wrapped the rear decklid? Specifically how you got it into the holes, and cut/wrapped it around the edges of each?
