Default Wrap it up

Looks like thanks to PCA, and Jeff with Arizona Designs I'm going to be getting my 924S wrapped!

I'm planning to turn the silver 924S (of the six vehicles owned by me and Susan, five of them are currently silver) red. Now that I have a paved driveway, instead of 2,000ft of gravel, I can have a car with a color, and not worry about dust!

The work is to be done this week at PCA headquarters, and the car will be on display Saturday during the PCA open house. Pictures will be coming.

Cheers,

Mark

Cool. I was looking to get a wrap done on my SRF. Basically it's like wrapping an overturned rowboat. No windows, no doors, no roof. I thought it would be a great option. But the pricing was prohibitive. Maybe I should talk to Arizona Designs.

If you document the wrap photographically and take good notes, this would make an excellent article for der Vorganger. I would do it, but I'll be at Summit Point, most likely and regretfully watching it rain. Email me. --richard

My good fortune is due in part to Lt. Dan passing on the offer. Nice meeting you the other day, Dan, and I hope to see you out on the track!

Richard--I'm sure there will be plenty of pictures. I imagine that Vu has something in mind for publicity, and I'll talk with him about that tomorrow.

I'd hope you'd take advantage of this and try something a little more than just red e.g.

Ratt,

You'll probably be a bit disappointed. I'll avoid spoiling things before I can post pics on Saturday, but I'm not going too crazy. I'm looking at this as a gift, and I didn't want to ask for too much.

Had thoughts of asking them to do the car in Flying Lizard livery. I'll probably wish I had gone ahead with that!
