Is the Taycan 4S lower front bumper wrappable?

I was told the same BUT these guys work for my local Ferrari / Porsche centre so I trusted them with it tbh. Thought about spraying it but really wanted the carbon effect and is exactly what I wanted.

It was £850 + VAT

Looking really nice! ??

Would be nice to know if they have done anything to the plastic before wrapping it?

If not, I’m really interested in hearing how it holds up.

Same question here. I wanted to wrap the plastic and was told it would not stick unless sanded. Looks fantastic!

Was done by a company called Funkee Fish in colchester

Hi,

I spoke to a part-time car wrapper today about a few places I’d like to add a carbon fibre wrap to and he said with his experience on a 4S that the front bumper material wouldn’t allow film to stick. He had previously tried with PPF but it’s just not adhesive enough.

He did say that I could use some plastic adhesive, but it would leave marks in the future when I come to remove the wrap.

I notice the turbo has a slightly different bumper shape that’s already painted. Which is why some people frequently wrap it.

Therefore, I was wondering whether anybody knew if PPS would work on this material and not leaving a lasting mark?

Yep. The whole front of my car is wrapped. That area and everything up to the doors. I will check if the black stuff is wrapped, I doubt it.

I have just had my skirts, front and rear bumbers wrapped in carbon. Really pleased with the results. The little air intake on the side is a real nice tough too

Greeting; I called some PPF Wrap dealers and they told me the PPF does not work in plastic. Do you have any problem ?

The PPF installers that I have consulted basically said that they would have to do what paint shops would do - grind the plastic to make it stick. That means some damage to the parts. I note, however, that this is not necessarily as bad as you might think, since the parts are actually relatively inexpensive to replace. I ultimately decided to see what my experience with the car is before doing it, and after 1 year, I concluded that at least one of the reasons that Porsche may have kept these parts to be black is that they are kind of dirt and dust magnets. But if I still wanted to wrap the skirts and lower dams, I would do it even if it meant that it would require me to replace the parts later to restore them to original since the price is relatively low.

I'm trying to do something as I'm not a big fan of the plastic look. It might be a better material but I'd love to have a different look.

Ideally - I'd like them (front lip and side skirts) to be High Gloss Black.

So far the only 2 options are:
1. PPS (didn't find in the US)
2. Suncoast parts (Get front lip an side skirts get them painted in High Gloss Black OR Carbon Fiber)

Labor + paint charge: 925 + 895 + ?
** The Carbon Fiber kit (https://www.suncoastparts.com/product/sku9j1cfaero.html) is not a choice as I don't want the Sport Design front.

If anyone has done something similar, please share.
