SLS AMG in full matte clear bra
I have the Magno Alanite Grey matte paint with is really an outstanding finish however, I wasn't going to take a chance on long term durability.

I called in Chris from http://www.eklektikautofilms.com/ to "wrap it up" for me. The results are absolutely incredible! Chris is well know for wrapping exotic high end cars. He has Huracan & Aventador to do later this week too!

He is also mobile for the entire SoCal area. Let him know, you know me ...to get the good guy discount!

One time bump as it's a topic on the AMG GT forum section. The wrap is still in perfect condition since the original date. This is the Suntek matte material

In your experience do you get more for your car when you sell or trade it with the wrap?
