    This foiling is becoming more and more fashy. 

    I would never go for mat black on a car. It looks like the camo cars. Ive seen other mat foils like yellow, blue, green, orange - they are pretty cool

    Gee..., I hope this photo means you can _remove_ the fashionable coating when you get bored with it.

    Obviously, it removes itself. Can you prevent that from happening?

    Re: 997 TT in matt black

    That is a bad "zone" for the coating..in that place there are usually battles of stone chips,water(when it rains),etc..Smiley

    maybe it need a transparent cover of the matt black cover..

    LOL. Niiiiice. If the coating is supposed to be permanent, I'd be very afraid for the paint shop in this case. They might get a mean letter from the owner.

    It looks like a cheap application.  Is there a wide range of prices in foiling?

    Re: 997 TT in matt black

    Hmm, I always thought I would love a matte black turbo. However, when I see this, it makes the car look ordinary... (not talking about the peeled foil now). Something I would never have thought.

    What I loved about a shiny black 996tt I saw once, was the fact that the black seems to hide a lot of lines, made it look like a dark, muscled blob... of a predator readying itself for the kill. That effect is totally gone when going for matte...

    I hate this black mate finish in all the cars that I have seen! Not even one looked nice! And this turbo shows exactly why: it look like an unpainted car!
