Also got a Jet black but with standard 20 inch wheels and everything black, it also got a PPF …
I have taken the tinted lights. Thoughat the back I really see no difference except that Porsche has almost disappeared …

Looks good. I also ordered glacier blue headlight/tail lights for my ice grey turbo. Did you get full PPF? I’m trying to figure out how much PPF and/or ceramic coating to do.

I always PPF from the A pillar and 100% forward of that. Also the door mirrors; and depending on the protrusion amount of the rear fenders, often get them done too. I ceramic coat 100% of all my vehicles including our daily driver.

Full, for black I fear micro scratching, it really becomes an issue after to much Carwash … and difference in ”shine“ between PPF parts and none PPF parts …
Black is a color where you see everything, so to keep it “uniform“ I opted for full ppf.

Some people mentioned not to PPF matrix headlights.
Any thoughts on that?

I have PPF’s on my headlights (all makes/models/brands) for two decades. Never an issue. As I see rock impact marks on them when doing closeup inspections while detailing, with most headlights costing over $1,500 each to replace, I will keep on having mine PPF’d.
