Something to keep in mind no one here talks about with ppf. A rock traveling at highway speeds that hits dead on is like a bullet it can and will eventually puncture the ppf. If this happens and it does. It is more exspensive to replace the film that will now get air under it. Then it is to fix the dent. Depending on film you have to replace or remove it after so many years. Film is exspensive. Over the years on my 3 civics now I have a grand total of about 300 bucks into fixing rock chips and dents or I could have spent thousands several times for each car on films.

Well worth the wait, Mr Good. If the PMM color had been available when I got my CBP, I would have had a hard time deciding. They are both so incredible on this car. The way PMM changes color based on the light conditions is extraordinary and it has an almost anodized look to it in direct sunlight. Enjoy the ride, so many great things about this car.

Welcome and Congratualtions. I know, I look out the bedroom or kitchen window to check on my RR every now and then. Sometimes I have to pinch myself after all the struggle to finally find and take one home at msrp.
The night I drove home (about 2 hrs) was surreal. Quite an accomplishment. I'm sure we all felt similar; pure joy to drive yet with a touch of " am I realy driving this?"
My neighbors and nefew and few realtives were all shocked and surpisingly to me were excitedly supportive of me.

Cheers and happy new year to all of you and yours!

Congrats.

Like the previous person posted about ppf... It sucks when stuff hits and punctures or leaves marks in the film and it costs a lot to replace. I met an airbrush touch-up paint guy nearby that fixes chips for $10-20. If you add those up + repainting an entire bumper, it's less than ppf + cost to replace ppf.. This was my first time getting ppf and it will probably be my last.
