Just joining the conversation regarding the overheating issue, my pana was also in trouble under the recent sun, although she wasn't cutting out the fuel injection, the temperature was surely close to the max... just got AK to help make some openings for better breathing of the hood, yet the temp was still high... looks like she is doom to get some plastic surgery on the hood cover... *sigh*

BTW being a tight ass and all, I just made a wish to the rainbow, and they made my wish come true with merely 4.6k!... I can finally forget about the recent turmoil at work for a moment

Just a question. I know you guys have a lot of experiences on window trim vinyl wrap. A member of bimmerpost forum just have his wrapped with gloss black at Shum Shui Po. The result is far less than perfect. Not smooth and a lot of bubbles. The shop claimed that those are not air bubbles but due to the window trims' roughness. True? Or the guy is making excuses for their bad workmanship?

Will I think you should get your car back to Porsche service center for a detail check up ... this overheating is not a common issue I think?

Are you referring to those gloss black vinyl wrap for shadowline trim? i have a roll and is not as good as the Matt black.

If you want matt black done well, Ricky is the only person you need.

Honestly?? You are holding Euro?? Hmm... You better keep an eye on the market... People are saying the Euro might be abolished if Greece goes bankrupt.

I have no insider news as I am not a banker, but this is what I hear and what I am reading as well....
