Uh maybe I should have asked you if I could make my opinion on a color choice that is not to my liking. I guess now I'm a hater! Oh well!

Wrap or not, I actually like the color. Exhaust looks great, wheels not so much.

Darn it, you're right. I thought we had a rare fire orange bird here for a quick minute.

And for those of you knocking the carbon wheels, time to make an appointment with your local optometrist.

Is it possible that they removed the badge on the trunk and gave it a clear wrap entirely. Looking at the front carbon spoiler, i looks like i can see bubble marks or residue.

I'm not saying it is real paint, but it could be possible that one would wrap it clear since it is a special individual paint, hence the crappy reflection blur on hood.

Clear or matte wraps do change some stuff.


Just for reference... My GTS is Matte gray to start.... then i had a matte clear wrap or "stealth" finish wrap over the entire car finalized by similiar to acid orange strip. So it looks a little more pearl like.

Would you recommend this matt wrap? Don't want to ruin the frozen grey paint finish

Hey Bob, sorry for late reply, Yeah I would recommended the matte wrap. The reason i did full body matte wrap was because i didn't want to have the matte/glassy look. If you still have the original paint exposed, you may see that effect (matte/glossy) with the rear wheel arches where BMW put the clear partial wrap protector front of the rear wheels. The matte wrap ended up making the car have a more pearl like finish, just slightly.
