I also added carbon fibre trunk in additon to the already CF hood, wing and mirrors. I also bought a brand new set of 20'wheels and air suspension. I'll take more pix later after I finish polishing the whole thing.
No it's not your imagination, I opened the sunroof coz I wanted to get the whole thing sprayed thoroughly. I did wrap everything else though, not to worry. hahaha... My only regret was not taking the sunroof off first. I kinda did the upholstery first which should've been later after the re-spray.

even a "black to clear" coating over what you have would make it trick car!

I have it already. I also got the chrome color one. but i still like their mystic color. gives more striking impact when you speed across a highway. The 6 Dimensions color shifts around the edges viewed from many different direction. I'll try and post it in youtube when ready. hopefully done by this saturday. It sure look a lot better in person.

its unlike alscorp where you can see those glittery bits (eww...). one of my ex-business associates and us debuted a car last eyar that has these type of paint effects..... it was a show stopper.

Aniway I'm quite happy with the new set up, I also notice that one of the australian member did a similar set up like my old one. He also did it in my friends shop eurolineauto.com.au right...?

Your car was and still is one of the sickest 8's on this board. The new paint job looks amazing, and I cant wait to see it all wrapped up! Good luck with it all and keep up the hard work.
