car plastic wrap?

#1

My dealer is offering to apply a 3M "plastic wrap" to my 997 before
delivery.

Is this a good idea? I live in a area where a lot of sand is applied to
roads, how long will this stuff last? Will it trap moisture the way a
standard auto bra does?

The only downside is that on certain areas like the hood you can clearly see
a line where the wrap is and where it isn't.

I'd recommend it. I wish I had done so, but it's too late these days for
mine (she does have it on her flanks, though). The shield should last
quite a while and repairing it is more desirable than to do so to the
paint, IMHO.
