He's charging Β£120 for black, easily removed if I sell to put the car back to as ordered, as are the other changes I've made. I won't be adding go-faster stripes though!

Looking forward to the pics! 😎 Bigger wheels next...?

I may go for 21" classics in Platimum - Mrs B likes the classics and she won't realise they're 21's rather than 19's. At over Β£4000, a bit indulgent and she would prefer another holiday. I'll stick the 18's on over winter and decide in March. I saw a photo that Spook posted, his car is now sold, sure he won't mind if I add it here. I really like how they look against VG.

Definitely be interested to see how the black wrap on the window trim looks.

Window trims done, looks good from 6ft or more away, close up not a perfect smooth finish like the original would be. It may smooth out a bit more I suspect. Calipers not yet finished, pics will follow when done.

As an aside, they've just wrapped this boxster that in their words was disgusting.

All done now, very pleased with the result, shiny window trims wrapped in gloss black as well. Never thought I would like the stealth look, but I love it. Definitely a unique Macan.

Looking great.

You definately have an addiction.

Tip, buy a can of ACF50 and when the wheels next come off spray unprotected metalwork with the material and work it in with a new painbrush, do mask off discs so no ACF50 gets on them.

I used it for years on my motorbikes to protect it.
