Matte Battleship Gray 996

This isn't my car, but my buddy sent me this picture of a 996 that he is wrapping at his shop. Just wanted to share with you guys....I think that the matte battleship gray with the red interior is going to look sweet!

I used to not like the idea of wrapping at all, especially the matte finish. BUT, the more I think about it, it is a great way to experiment with new colors and protect the original finish at the same time. When you get tired of the gray, blue, or whatever color, the wrap comes off. My thinking has totally changed - and I like this gray P-car.
