    Looks like Great Neck Plaza area. Spectacular F12. I live on the north shore in Nassau and have yet to see an F12. Did you get it from Ferrari of LI ?

    Yeah I agree. I think it was more an issue of logistics - the local distributor probably didn't carry the larger rolls at the time.

    I think satin pearl white would work on my car. Just like new wheels, sometime to try on later when she needs a refresh.

    I saw that car driving around Kings Point. It looks great.

    absolutely not, the matte silver is not the same as the matte black, I have a G550 and a Range that is also wrapped but the silver is almost impossible to duplicate

    before i put my order in i even tried wrapping a silver grigio car with matte finish clear 3m tape and it was not even close

    the maximum width on any tape is 60" and you will not be able to wrap an F12 without a seam on the hood, i wrapped my whole car and there is visible seam on the hood

    Well, that's a bummer.

    Front-engine cars have longer hoods. The Cali's hood will also exceed 60" in either dimension. We really need something like another 12" at least to even want to try it.

    I guess we could always fake a stripe down the middle, not. LOL!

    will post some pics over the weekend, I don't have any CF around the cockpit as the matte silver on the dash matches the outside color not to mention the fact that the cost of CF was insane if I remember correctly about $20K

    Smart choice, I did not think of the material in the car! The shields are good enough ;)
