What did you do to get your exhaust tips gloss black like this? I no longer like the chrome on mine and would like to do the same. Also, what were you charged to do it if you dont mind me asking?

Dont know if he did that afterwards, but ours came with it in the night package with the glossed exhaust tips/front spoiler/mirror in black/side fins in black

Ahh I see. I didnt realize the night package included exhaust tips. I bought mine used so who ever had it before seemed to spec everything but the night package and ceramics for some reason

Im 100% sure it can be done haha, no need to regret. Our spec doesn't have ceramics either, but thats cause we purposely found one without due to the higher replacement costs + plans to keep the car for as long as possible.

Oh yes. To clarify, non ceramics were preferred for the same reasons. It just happened to be the two items not specced. I found the lack of night package odd since the original owner specced nearly everything else!

Looks awesome.
I've had my car for 3+ years now. Been getting bored and thinking of trading it in even though there's nothing wrong with it. Now I am tempted to wrap it to get a new look. What's the ballpark cost on a wrap for our cars?

The cost is highly dependent on prices in your area, and material you go with (flat colors are less expensive than chromes and satin chromes, etc), but around DFW it's about $4-5k for a full car. This is one of the reasons I chose Autoflex for mine. Thicker, more durable, can actually get depth which is impossible in a vinyl, and half the cost.

Sounds like I need to do my research on Autoflex vs vinyl wrap. Didn't even realize that was a thing.
Took the GTS out to the local track, Area 27. Brake upgrades kept the temperatures in check and brakes feeling reliable. With the wing and new tires, I improved my pb by 3 seconds.

Nice pics. I'm heading out to Area 27 in a couple weeks to play around with the new GTR.
