Sorry to spoil the fun but I was just reflecting to my self and its obviously not worth it especially since I've done my phone and it just fell which made the film peal. Imagine If I had the Cayenne done up in orange, drive it 24/7, every single day in the heat with the debris it will peal and become dented.

Here it is 3,000 dollars, 7months warranty and too flamboyant. I will take it to another shop and paint the wheels again for 300 dollars.

Whats your verdict, I dont know why but I feel its a sin to spend that much on a 3 year old car. I just did it become I was tempted as my friend did the hood and the wing of his turbo in matte black.

Maybe some of the Pshop gurus could hook you up with an impression? So you've got some visuals to help you decide.

I saw a GT500 Shelby, daily driver with a similar foil the matte foil has lots of bubbles and with the road debris it shows many scratches which causes it to peal.

I'd think that it would last a bit longer if you found a really reputable place to do it. Can you specify the thickness of the wrap? It ought to hold up a lot better to the abuse if it was a little thicker than normal, no?

Don't do too much at first. Try it out on the Alu trim, for example, first and see if it lasts for a while.
