Default High Gloss Wraps Installed on Window + Trunk Trim

Here are the before and afters. Please excuse the dirt, the car is in desperate need of a wash but I'm trying to wait until I make room for it in the garage first.



Window Trim High Gloss 3M Wrap



Trunk Trim High Gloss 3M Wrap

Cost me $340. There's a couple minor imperfections but nothing I'm upset about out, for $340 I don't regret it. I got it done at Redline GT in Inglewood. I think another shop might have done a better job for the same price though.

Did the shop remove the trim pieces from the car to wrap them, or were they able to wrap them on the car? Thinking about having this done on my 991. Thanks.

Looks great. What is the expected lifespan of the wrapped trim? In case anyone else is considering this, I saw in another thread that the rear hatch trim can be purchased from Porsche in black for less.than $100 and is installed with 2-sided tape.

Yea, suncoast sells that piece you're talking about for $60 + shipping: http://www.suncoastparts.com/product...295501041.html

It's probably still easier/cheaper to wrap it though.

As far as how long it lasts, someone else can probably answer that better than I can. This is 3M which I think is on the better side in terms of quality. Google search seems to suggest a lifespan of 5-7 years which is great by my standards.

It was I who wrote about the gloss black trim piece on the back lift gate. 15 minute job.
