Could you wrap the entire car in PPF? No idea if a regular PPF or Matte PPF would distort the Frozen color or not.

You can do full PPF; I would go with regular PPF as the OEM Paint is already matted. Matted PPF is more intended to provide a Matte Finish to regular paint.

You’d have to use a matte PPF on a frozen paint to keep the matte look. The regular ppf is glossy and will give it a glossy finish. I saw a matte E63S over the weekend with the door edges wrapped in regular ppf. Needless to say, it stuck out like a sore thumb.

I stand corrected! Thanks Ryan.

PPF is something relatively new for me but I love it.

Congrats! Car looks sick! Huge fan of the ceramic brakes. What size spacers did you go with ?
