Awesome.... are you going to keep the orange side markers? Looking at the pics of the euro car above I could go either way on this color but would probably swap. Either way looks great, congrats

PPF install is done! Next step is to apply the Modesta BC-04 coating.

Last step before bring it home is the application of Modesta BC-04 coating and baking it under IR lamps

Time to get some miles on the car and break it in before it's first track day in a couple months

Wow, that color is amazing. It really, really works with all the carbon fiber, the yellow calipers, and the wheels. Amazing.

Yachting Blue Metallic is exceptionally Understated... A PTS exterior paint color I've admired for decades. All the very best, and drive safe.!

I know it's potentially gauche to ask in some corners about costs, but what did all of this protection run you in total? I say this as someone who if money were no object would do all of this sort of thing to a new car, but in the past has done a much better job keeping up on the mechanical aspects than the painted bits.

I do have to say that while I have seen a couple 4RS cars in more understated colors where it seemed a bit of a waste, this thing looks absolutely gorgeous.
