Personally, I wouldn't do it but a vinyl wrap would be an option. Too bad it so expensive.
Vinyl wrap is much cheaper than getting a full paintjob. Especially from a shop competent enough to spray a full matte paintjob correctly. Probably be looking at upwards of 4k for a spray job like that and maybe 1.5k for a wrap. Plus its totally reversible. I say go for it

Wrap sounds good. If you don't like it, it's as easy as peeling it all off!

LMAO. I think it'll "dull" the car down quite a bit. Looks decent on the CGT, but again, its a Carrera GT - little more styling wise than an S.
