We work on more cars for the road than cars for the track and pretty much everybody who has had it fitted has from there on carried on having it fitted on all their future cars.

Suggestion
I had some 3M Ventureshield applied to my Audi Q3 for which there was no template available, the 3M recommended fitter never did get around to fixing the area that came unstuck.....

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I'm looking at getting a paint protection film pit in my Cayman GTS but my local fitter says there isn't a kit for the 981 GTS. Can anyone confirm or deny this? Also Does the GTS share the same bumper as any other caymans in the range?

What are the costs involved?
I've toyed with the idea several times but keep asking myself if it's really necessary?
If I did a lot of track work (which I don't) then maybe.

Hi
Yes there is a kit and we have the design on our system along with the GT4 of which we have done quite a few of recently. We also have the pattern for the complete car which is getting increasingly popular these days.
Best regards

To be honest it's not just for tracking and cars such as these are very prone to chips.. it is a no brainier on cars which have high downforce such as the GT3RS or the 675LT. These seem to suck up the dirt and attract debris which in turn marks the paintwork. We recently had 2 x 991 RS come in both pretty much delivery miles bar the drive down to us and both cars had already picked up a few chips. Also the film technology has improved vastly compared to the earlier years whereby it is hardly noticeable unless except to the expert eye that the car is wearing the paint protection film.
We work on more cars for the road than cars for the track and pretty much everybody who has had it fitted has from there on carried on having it fitted on all their future cars. I guess it is just piece of mind.
I myself have heavily tested it on my personal car by sitting behind a 991 TurboS at close to 140mph which no damage to the car apart from the odd chip on the windscreen. It really does work.
Best Regards

Prices seem to range from £1000 to £1500 depending upon how much of the front end of the car you want covered.
So I have sourced a possible Suntek kit for the CGTS. I've had Venture-shield on my previous cars and though that did a good job. Any comments on Suntek? Also still seeing if I can get a Xpel kit if anyone has any recommendations who might supply the kit only?
