SkinzWraps has shops all over the place - including one in NY. You will have to call to get a quote for your car, as I'm not going to spill the beans on actual cost. Don't you know my wife has the internet too!!

Another board member had his 06 SC RR wrapped including headlights and wheels and I think it turned out pretty insane.

This looks like a good way to protect the paint, get a whole new look for the car, less maintenance, and drive the pizz out of it!

Where's the downside?

Well, $$$

But a repaint down the road would be lots more.
I was going to wrap the roof of my Superleggera last year and back out due to the potential damage to the paint if you decide to strip the wrap later down the road. The material of the wrap and the adhesive they use for this kind of wrap is a bit different from 3M clear bra. To the op, I would probably 3M clear bra the whole thing on top of what you have now to give the carbon fiber wrap more deep and depth look. Take a good care of that sweet GT3!

That sounds like a great idea as it would also alleviate the dust and finger prints issues...

...good job but I would drop the logo/phone no.
