Proper re-spray should cost in excess of $10k. And take a lot longer than the wrap. And the car is leased so Audi will have to take it back.

I just got the car back. Color corrected, including the door jambs. Here are some photos taken at sunset. I'll replace these with better photos in the sun tomorrow.

Wait, What??? You never said you leased that can of pea soup in your first post: The Audi came in "tactical green" which is a horrendous color so I am having it wrapped in a color as close to Audi's ultra blue as possible. I wouldn't have acquired the car if I couldn't wrap it.
So now you spend money on a wrap for a car you will have for Maybe 3 years? LOL , must be the Cali. air.

Hi Scott,
Wanted to check in with this thread.
How is the wrap holding up?
Do you like it?
Any issues with the wrap?
Is it easy to keep clean?

No issues with the wrap. I just bought a "wrapped" front license plate and am waiting to have it installed. (It will be tricky because the front surface undulates and is not flat.)
The car drives really well. It hugs the ground because of the low CoG and the rear wheel steering. Nevertheless, there is nothing like a big ICE V-8 roadster, so I will be keeping the AMG GT.

Thanks, nice update.
I should be experimenting with EVs but I my heart is just not in it yet. I'm only at the "reading" and sometimes, the "test driving" stages.
