Are you actually planning on adjusting??
GT3 wing is adjustable but I don't think I've ever seen anyone adjust it.
I will surely play around with the settings, whether the differences will be noticeable will be a different story.GT3 wing is adjustable but I don't think I've ever seen anyone adjust it.
Is anyone here protecting their car with PPF? I am considering doing the whole car.

I'm getting Green Hell Magno so a full PPF wrap is essential imo.The paint on my SLS was very strong, only a couple of tiny marks after 15,000miles, however like you mhh, I would also like full protection on the GT R

Do you have a preferred place for PPF? Someone from another thread mentioned that having pre-cut pieces is very important...

I'm getting the GTR in Australia but I had a Turbo S done with full cover PPF last month by Paintshield who I've used before and been happy with. They picked up in Chester and delivered to me in Bucks as part of the deal. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.The paint on my SLS was very strong, only a couple of tiny marks after 15,000miles, however like you mhh, I would also like full protection on the GT R
Fantastic review of a RHD car driven in the UK in the latest July issue of EVO magazine #236. Written by David Vivien a respected journalist who has been around for 3 decades not one of the youngsters. Maximum 5 star verdict unlike the 3 McLarens tested in the issue including the new 720S. The contrast between the two verdicts sums up the cars as not only is the GTR hugely capable but it also adds drama and excitement.
One comment was "I've honestly never driven a car that engaged so many senses all at once, nor one that took the notion of instant gratification quite to literally".
Impressive. Wish I had one on order!

I'd recommend CG Performance or Autostore for PPF.The paint on my SLS was very strong, only a couple of tiny marks after 15,000miles, however like you mhh, I would also like full protection on the GT R

Do you know what would they charge for bumper, full bonnet, both front wings & mirror backs? Seen so many s

In my limited experience, it is usually only30-40% cheaper to have the major "danger areas" covered rather than the whole car, and sods law says that another vehicle throws up a stone that hits a non protected area! So for me, all or nothing, and it will be all.
Yep I know a few friends who've ppf'd the whole car. I've done ppf on 4 cars now as described in my comment above & thankfully no chips on other parts of the bodywork bar 1 on the side intake of my Huracan but it was no problem as just touched it in before selling. Saved me a lot of ££££ on applying ppf on the whole car. If you're tracking it a lot then I understand doing the whole car
