Hi all,

I'm trying to bottom out my spec for a new GTS at the moment and am likely going Crayon or Dolomite which I plan to contrast with the various black features. I saw a Crayon car yesterday which had the black door handles and it looked superb but I wonder if it is the type of thing I might lose enthusiasm for in future. I was therefore wondering about the possibility of spec'ing body-coloured handles and having them wrapped. Has anyone had their Macan (or just door handles) wrapped and what is the quality of finish/durability like on the door handles?

Thanks in advance!

Probably not of use but I’ve got gloss black handles on Dolomite and I tried to get the handles PPF’d and it was a non starter.

Body colour looks so much better to my eyes.

A competent wrapping company can wrap almost anything....and it will probably outlive how long you keep the car!

I had lots of my Ariel Atom wrapped 6 years ago, and still looks great!

Mine's wrapped and the door handles are still fine, haven't gone far since lockdown so only done 15k miles though.

I budgeted on a new wrap after five years but at the moment it looks good for ten!
