Satin Guard on Black 997 - Picture request!

Has anyone does it on their 997? If so, would love to see pictures!

I found this post, which looked pretty awesome on an M5. I have a black 997.2, and thinking about doing something like this...

There's a handy dealer locator for local installs.

Thanks for sharing! That looks gorgeous! Curious, how much was the hood wrap and installation? And what is the best way to wash/clean the wrap? I assume no wax/polish... I'm definitely thinking about going that route now!

What happens when you get a scratch, snag or a door ding, do you have to re-wrap that entire section. Just doesn't seem practical unless your car is a show car or garage queen. I can see doing the hood but not the sides, but that's just me.
