car plastic wrap?

Jan 18, 2006 2 Replies

My dealer is offering to apply a 3M "plastic wrap" to my 997 before delivery.



Is this a good idea? I live in a area where a lot of sand is applied to roads, how long will this stuff last? Will it trap moisture the way a standard auto bra does?


I'd recommend it. I wish I had done so, but it's too late these days for mine (she does have it on her flanks, though). The shield should last quite a while and repairing it is more desirable than to do so to the paint, IMHO.

The only downside is that on certain areas like the hood you can clearly see a line where the wrap is and where it isn't.
