The black top will look fantastic. I think you did a great job man, seriously.

What material did you go with? 3M?

Thanks, I used Avery Denison wrap. Easier to use in my opinion.

Patience and skill = amazing. Nothing but respect watching pros do wrap after my small experiences with it. But a home job that comes out this nice - just wow.

Garage
I know exactly what you mean. I was "surprised" by early snow fall long time ago, barely made my way home and the last few meters, I (almost) had to give up with my summer tires, couldn't do the slightest climb...took me 30 mins for 50meters. It was rediculous, but lesson learned.
(slightest) Snow = Winter tires, or let it be.

Mine's wrapped in GREEN too, but a bit brighter shade. Close to Porsche Signal Green.

2002 S. Just bought it a few weeks ago. The previous owner had it wrapped. It's Arctic Silver underneath.

Cheers.

Nice, is that Viper green? I considered that. So many choices 🤔
