Thx for pics. I agree with your thoughts that rear with 20mm and front with 15mm is probably the best setup....particularly with the mudguards to protect the paint.

Those look great, especially with the splash guards!!! Could you post a couple of pics...one of the side profile. One square from the back corner to see how flush, and one standing next to front wheel and shooting straight down from above fender and over front wheel? I like the LCM the more...

It looks like contamination ( hair or fiber ) in each pic, don't know how to describe the white smudge in pic 1....assume it is in or on the clear coat. The fiber/hair appears to have gotten imbeded in paint during spraying bc of the color. This likely means that if it could be removed it would...

On stock wheels the 275 will only push the tire out 5mm over stock.....a conservative change vs the 15 or 20 mm from spacers.

As a general comment, matching white paint when spraying touchup paint or painting a panel is challenging. The fact the type S is a pearl over metallic makes it very difficult. However, if the scratches are small and you'll be using a touchup paint bottle and small brush you can get close...

Does this wheel clear the front calipers?? What tire size are you using? Thx.

As stated above, you can ceramic coat your own car for roughly $100- 150 for materials. It makes it far easier to wash and keep clean. There are some cars that "have a factory lens coating"...Porsche is one of them, Acura is not. Ceramic coating bonds to the paint and is "hard" after it cures...

I have had good luck using mud/stone guards to minimize stone chips, bc the ppf will get damaged and abbrated by the stones making it look bad immediately behind front wheels. Usually stone chip damage on rockers is much less once past the front door, and using ceramic coating does a reasonable...

If you are going matte finish, it seems odd to put a high sheen ceramic coating on top. Suggest you discuss with installer how that will work. I don't know if ppf would help edges, but it will put a more durable coating on the ppf, which helps reducecswiirls in ppf coating. A question on...

It appears the difference is A pillars and side skirts. I've never had my A pillars done, nor ever had any damage. The rockers are ok, and it is primarily to protect from shoe scuffs....however + $600 sounds high. I can get rockers done for $300. I will also have film on the add-on rear wheel...

If you are looking for resistance to scratches, easy to keep clean and no seams or edges, ceramic coating maybe the better approach for you. Ceramic bonds to the paint providing a harder, slippery surface (easier to clean), and a glossier appearance. Once the paint has been corrected, and...

The purpose of PPF and ceramic coating is to be applied over the clear coat to protect it and the paint underneath. If your question is about the decontamination or the paint correction, then yes this is applied to the clearcoat. Decontamination is using chemicals to remove unwanted materials...

Where I live a partial front, mirrors, lights, door cups, door kick plates, and rear trunk opening on bumper runs about $850. A full front runs around $1500. This is for wrapped edges. Ceramic coating by itself is pretty easy, it's the paint correction that's costly. On a brand new car with...

That is a stunning look. It enhances the styling plays off of the other trim pieces, emphasizes the roof design.....and clearly exemplifies a well thoughtout and creative look. Great job!!!!

Yeah, never fond of his reviews. They are written for WSJ customers and rary really provide enthusiast relevant info. This is a fluff piece lacking any details or true opinions. My guess is that he wasn't impressed but choice to be obtuse and never taking a position on anything.

Thx.
