I love that color and considered doing it but I opted for PPF instead as most wraps do not provide protection. Here is one I found online and I think it would look sick. I saw a Model Y wrapped in Nardo and it was stunning and unique.

This is a great video of a new product from GSWF. I've been reading and watching this new film brand where it's both PPF and color wrap in one.

Did you PPF the entire car?I love that color and considered doing it but I opted for PPF instead as most wraps do not provide protection. Here is one I found online and I think it would look sick. I saw a Model Y wrapped in Nardo and it was stunning and unique.

Saw a MSLR 19" yesterday. Looks amazing!! Looks really wide from the back. What's funny is there was a chalk white 911 right next to it. Once I saw it in person I was over the chalk color. It's nice if you want a different version of a white car.

Wow!! Really nice! Some questions: Where did you get the calipers in blue? Also the rims/price and size? Can you post more pictures? For some reason in this angle the back door looks a shade off from the front.
Painting calipers yourself in any color you want is easy. I've done about 4 Tesla's now. In a nutshell
- Clean caliper well. Dawn and water.
- Wipe Caliper down with damp rags
- Dry caliper with clean rag
-Wipe caliper down with rubbing alcohol to prep
-Use Painters tape and old newspaper to mask off inside the wheelwell, rotors, etc
- Spray a coat of primer for better paint adhesion and to cover the old Tesla decal
- Spray several thin coats of VHT Caliper Paint allowing time to dry between coats
- After fully dry (i allow at least couple hours or can speed it up some by using heat gun) apply Tesla or Brembo decal from Ebay
-Spray caliper with 1-2 coats of clear
Doing the above in the temperature conditions outlined on the paint can will result in excellent results. Key to making it last? Using no wheel cleaner when washing the car. I only use the car wash soap. I also never aim strong stream of water onthe calipers. Due to regen, there will be minimal (if any) brake dust/dirt buildup on the calipers anyways.

Nardo Gray is a sick color with hard to explain depth until you see in person. I’d definitely consider doing the whole car in one of those new colored PPF films
