I want to protect the front end. How much should a 3M clear wrap cost me. Front bumper, full hood, fenders, mirrors?

Also, when I go back to pick it up, any advice on things I should look for, ask for? Anything I should ask them to 'throw in'?
A good wrap will cost over 1k. Some have quoted me 2200!! Shop around and check out references.

Smart move going for a GTS 997.2 You will love it.

I noticed you ended up with Alcantera seat inserts. You will LOVE THEM. When I got my C4S the options included Alcantera seat and door inserts. I really wasn't sure how I was going to like the seat inserts but it didn't take long to fall in love with them. They breath, are freakishly soft and are easy to maintain. Grats!

Very, very AWESOME! What are the specs compared to the 997.2S? What was the price difference? The rarity of the GTS will always make it a desirable choice...

Beautiful car! You will love your GTS. The GTS is one heck of a 911. I really like the silver wheels on your GTS. I have the black center locks on my white GTS, and really like them because of the contrast to the white. But on your dark blue car, I think the silver wheels look great.

Thank you all for the compliments!

Any recommendations on an indoor car cover? Should I just get the OEM cover for this car or is there something better out there?

Also for the clear side markers, SunCoast or Bumperplugs? Or indifferent?

Anything I should do to the car immediately from a 'care' standpoint? Wax, upholstery stain guards, etc.?

Congrats on the car! I've had mine for a month now, one of the first things I wanted to do was chip protection. I got VentureShield Ultra on the whole front end, side mirrors and rear impact area. I also got Opti-Coat done, wasn't planning on it at first, but after some research decided to give it a shot.
