Congratulations and welome! How were the red accent strips done. Very subtle and not over the top. Looks like the interior may be black? Do you have photos in sunlight. Satin pearl should be great looking in sun?

I tried hard to give red accents without making it too much. Will take photo soon and upload it!

I usually hate the painted diffuser, but the red along with the R emblem - beautiful touch. In fact the red accents in front even look great.

Emblems are removed when you do a wrap I suppose? Nice time to paint them. So the diffuser is painted (not wrapped) as well as the red in the front?

You've taken a beautiful original design and made it even more gorgeous without making it tacky. Damn nice! Wrap is incredible.

Too bad these aren't nicer, forged wheels 20"

You officially take the award for the best looking F-Type I've seen..next to mine. Wrap looks legit. I also had my mirrors wrapped in gloss black. Good to see another SoCal owner!

Default Nice car!

I've done a bit of wrapping on mine.

Great to see a guy thinking outside the box.

I just love the satin pearl and if I was going to do a full wrap, that would be the color I went with. I fist saw this color at a Jag dealership a few years ago when Colin Kaepernick drove in to San Jose Jaguar with his freshly wrapped XJ in flat pearl a few years ago. It was about 6pm so the sun was at its orangish and when he parked, a group of 10 of us just stood there and stared at all the shades and colors beaming off his car at that time of the day. It looked like crushed pearls with the pinks and the blue undertones. Just awesome.

I'm not feeling the red touches personally as I think it takes away from the statement you made with the pearl but it is subtle enough. Let the wrap speak for itself. I would also wrap the side vents in pearl, leaving only the inner mesh black. That would let the body flow without interuption as I've always thought the side vents should coordinate with the body color. Powdercoat the wheels black and you're basically done my man! By the way I see the "R" logo in red....nice!

I personally welcome you as you're my type of guy!

Very, very nice indeed!

I keep looking at the photos over and over, and think you have done a stunning job. The black door handles and red accents on the aero pack and red R set it apart from anything else I have seen. Very creative.

Oh, and welcome!
