Order Arrival

Guys,

The new car has been here about a week. I haven't taken any pictures of it myself, just pictures from the dealer and the transporter. I finally drove it this morning for the first time to Premier Protective Films, getting the entire car completely wrapped. There was a Green GT3RS that was getting the full treatment too. No pictures of that though. Only mods so far are Techart Tips cuz the stockers are fugly.

Thanks guys. I'm debating getting the front windshield ceramic tinted 61% perhaps 51% if it's not too dark. Thoughts?

Wow congrats! Looks like some deviating stitching there. I like it. When mine comes in I am taking it to Premire also but just to do the front bra with ventureshield material this time around. I understand there is a 3 week wait so I am going to have to do some speculating.

Just curious, your steering wheel looks awsome, is that XPA option? I hope so.

Gradyex,

You will be very impressed with Premier, ask for Sammy and tell him Hussain sent you. The wheel is the Porsche OEM Thicker steering wheel with White Deviated stitching...

I can tell you it is much thicker than the one in my 997S! I like the contrast of the deviated stitching! That sucker is loaded! Nicely done! Enjoy in good health!

Do you have the thicker steering wheel in your 997S? I have another 997S as well and mine feels puny now. I wanted to get the Techart Carbon steering wheel for it and the Carbon shifter, and e-brake, but unfortunately, they only sell the OEM wheel, shifter, and e-brake as a package.

Hussain congrats with your car man, looks sweet, I love White
Are you able to completely rap the whole car with the protective film ?

Do you have a ballpark on how much that is running ?

I was thinking about doing the bra, but if the whole car can be done, I might go that route

Again enjoy your new Baby!!!

Mike,

Thanks for the compliments. Yes, you are able to completely wrap the car with protective film. Sammy at Premier showed me an M5 they had half completed, one door had film the other didn't and I couldn't tell which door had film and which didn't and I'm in the car business! They are great! They will come to you as well, although it may cost you an arm and a leg.

Hussain!!!! Looks amazing!!!!!

OK here is my input, If that were my TT I would add the Techart front Lip Spoiler and the Techart rear wingblade .....but not the side skirts or rear bumper under skirts

PS, what was checked off to get all the stitching deviated
like that?
Congrats again!
