I am considering doing a black wrap on the roof with the Chalk exterior. The combination looks good on the 911 and Pannies that way.For what it’s worth . . . ,

Thanks! It's always fascinating to watch the production process.P.S. In the spirit of your car being built this week, you may enjoy this if you haven't seen it already:
I've watched it a few times 🙃

You found one, thank you! I think that gloss black front looks awesome!! The consensus seems to be that it's gonna have to get it covered with PPF though.... Similar to you, I’ve spent some time searching and searching for real examples. Here’s a video I found on YouTube that has it!
Don’t forget to cover the gloss black of the B pillars, where its needed most.You found one, thank you! I think that gloss black front looks awesome!! The consensus seems to be that it's gonna have to get it covered with PPF though.
Have you got your code to share? When's delivery?
What is the Issue that it needs to be wrapped?Don’t forget to cover the gloss black of the B pillars, where its needed most.
I’m surprised. Both our current VAG cars’ B pillars are quite swirly, wife’s in worse shape than mine. After I buffed mine, covered in Xpel.What is the Issue that it needs to be wrapped?
I have gloss black B pillars on my current Macan and don’t have any problems.
My Audi S4 and Audi Q8 have sport black gloss trim on the B pillars. Yes, they get a bit swirl marked over time so I just give them a quick light polish and wax once a year…good as new. Honestly, I think wrapping those in PPF is more detrimental to the cosmetics than having to deal with swirl marks from time to time.I’m surprised.

I just went out and had another look at mine and I cannot see any blemishes at all even in glancing light, they are as good as newI’m surprised. Both our current VAG cars’ B pillars are quite swirly, wife’s in worse shape than mine. After I buffed mine, covered in Xpel.
Hi all,
Some of you may be following along with my build deliberations for my 22 GTS that should be order locked during March. Thanks to the forum's help, I've decided to go with my heart and option chalk paint.
My build as it currently stands includes high gloss black roof rails and lower mirrors, with the normal matte black GTS grill and side blades. I was really happy with the way the car looked, and gloss black for the matte black bits didn't really cross my mind as necessary.
Unfortunately for my wallet, I've since found this video on YouTube of a guy taking delivery of a chalk 911 with the full scope of gloss black highlights:
I think it looks incredible.
Here are the differences between my current build and a proposed revision with all high gloss components.
Current:

Proposed:

You'll note the glossy front grill, lower side blades and the high gloss black GT wheels. Around the back I've also chosen gloss black for the model designation, etc. All up the changes add around A$5k to my build 😕
My questions are:
1. has anyone seen a the new style GTS grill optioned with high gloss black yet? if so, would you mind posting pics or linking me?
2. does the high gloss plastic hold up well enough to scratches, etc. over time or will it need protection?
3. should I just option the matte spiders, save $3k and maybe get them sprayed gloss or should I go whole hog? I do prefer the design of the spiders.
Optioning these cars is such an expensive exercise 😩
Thanks!
P.S. not a fan of gloss black handles, before someone gets in there.
Haha, I’ve watched pretty much every single Macan 2022 video out there in anticipation. It does look nice, I flipflop on it all the time, really is just a preference.You found one, thank you!
