did you paint the wheels black or plasti dip them, or what? Car looks great. I'm thinking of doing practically the same thing w/ my lapis blue Cayman S. hood is already black vinyl. I'm thinking the wheels have to be black too, like yours.
I had the rims repaired (curb rash and some chipping) and powder coated ($125 per rim). I kind of wish I would have plasti dipped them. Would have been cheaper, and I could peel it off when I remove the wrap. I'm not really a fan of black rims on a black car. Ill probably get new rims when I take the wrap off.
It's also so much easier to clean... Don't have to worry about swirles so much anymore.
not really a matte fan of any sort. To me it looks really cheap and unfinished. That being said, yours looks better than I would imagine it would. I would never do it, but kind of cool for a track car or something (not feeling the EAS decal wings either), but not long term. I like the wheel shape, but in black they don't stand out at all, would have rather gone a gunmetal maybe? (they are an understated design, so not sure they go with the color and matte).
I had my M3 roof wrapped, after a few years (always parked in garage, unless I was at work, and then the sun is only beating 1/2 day) and it only lasted a few years, so be advised, these wraps are not close to permanent.
Looks really cool - Black looks good too. But good job - variety is the spice of life. I like the contrast hood. And if you want it Black again, or anything else, you're good to go!
Took the blue off about 3 years ago....bored again, gonna do matte toxic green this time I think, will post pics once I get it done. Left the blue wrap on for about 2 years, front end had some tears around the corners near the end, but it held up pretty good. I like that it is much easier to clean, and I don't have to worry about swirls (hence the matte finish). Just going to plastidip the wheels black this time.
