That looks great!! Still haven't decided whether to ppf mine or or not.... quick question, if you have the full car wrapped what would happen with the GTS door stickers if you removed the ppf? I presume you would need to order new ones as they would get pulled off with the film? You emailed the details of the guys you were going to use, glad you are pleased with the job. Was it suntek in the end?
Yes it was Suntek - apparently gives the best gloss. We didn't discuss about the door stickers coming off if the film was removed. ATM they have a shadow/outline around them as the film is still drying. Wouldn't be the end of the world if they came off if the film was removed as they are relatively inexpensive and should be simple enough to refit.

The result really is top rate and I'm definitely happier knowing it's better protected from chips and scratches. It seems it will be easier to maintain as well so we will have to see how it looks after a British winter.

Door sills painted look great. Should have done myself. Mine rhodium silver which looks very similar to the gt silver ones posted here

I'm loving that Rhodium silver - it seems to change colour in the light! In this photo it looks almost blue!!

Chris - you're putting us to shame, you're actually using your car!

Gotta say - still looks good even dirty.

The fabulous wide rear is something that's missing from the Cayman shape and part of the reason I love my GTS!

Just spent the weekend driving it on some of Wales' best roads, it's properly epic and properly hard core in sport plus mode. I didn't miss the GT4 at all. Its breadth of abilities is staggering.

If the next GTS is a turbo lump I can see our cars becoming very much in demand!

I've had confirmed from porsche the next Gts will be turbo which makes these the last naturally aspirated kid carrying 911 ever. Guy I know at porsche was demanding me not to sell and keep hold which is what I will be doing + driving hard as wel.
Pics from welsh blast?

About 76 quid EACH from an OPC. About 25 a pair from Designstuffonline. OK so they're not OE but...

76 quid each is daylight robbery!
