Hi All,
I am about to get my Carrara white CGTS. As you know, all GTS already come with many black accents. I never wrapped any of my cars before (partially or totally). I chose my Cayman in Carrara white with the idea to probably wrap the roof in carbon fiber (faux carbon fiber of course).
then, I saw the other day a beautiful Carrara white 911 with the option Electric Slide/Tilt Sunroof in Glass. It gives a wonderful black accent to the roof and it makes it look less like a totally white egg. I also see some of you posting pictures with carbon fiber items (spoiler, side mirrors, front spoilers, etc.). I tend to like that as well. But I don't want to get to a point where I added to much ...
In the beginning, I started whit the idea of wrapping in carbon fiber: the roof, the side mirrors, the black plastic on the front bumper (including the bottom lips that comes with the GTS model)... and maybe the rear spoiler if its not to much.
I called a guy that was referred to me as the one having the contracts with the Ferrari an Rolls-Royce dealers to do their wrapping. He is known to work very well and his prices are cheap (when you don't go thru the dealer...).He told me that wrapping the roof with gloss black would look much nicer, since carbon fiber looks better on smaller surfaces. He also suggests that i wrap the side mirrors with gloss black instead of carbon fiber.. he said he simply prefers gloss black over carbon fiber. The black accents on my car are satin black.
I don't mind having the roof wrapped in gloss black. But I am wondering if it would look nice if on top of that my side mirrors, the black plastic on the front bumper and MAYBE the black portions of the front spoiler would be wrapped in carbon fiber.
Or should I simply leave the car as is... Is the carbon fiber look outdated since it is easily available (wrapping is cheap compare to the real carbon fiber...). I haven't seen any posts about wrapping a 718 on this Forum and I am not sure anymore if this is a good idea.
It is clear to me that I don't want to wrap the roof in carbon fiber anymore. If I do the roof it will be in gloss black.
So here are the options I would like you to help me with:
a) simply leave the car as is;
b) wrapping in gloss black the roof;
c) wrapping in gloss black the roof and the side mirrors;
d) wrapping in gloss black the roof;
wrapping in carbon fiber the side mirrors, black plastic on the front bumper and rear spoiler
e) wrapping in gloss black the roof and the side mirrors
wrapping in carbon fiber the black plastic on the front bumper and rear spoiler
f) options d or e but without the rear spoiler;
g) any other suggestions.
Before taking a final decision, I would like to get your ideas.
Thank you in advance.
