Does anyone have Dravit Grey + XPEL Stealth

Hi, I am seriously considering of this combo to have the "frozen" effect. Does anyone have it? thank you!

The shine and metallic to me is what makes Dravit look so dynamic. If you're going to stealth wrap it, you're going to lose what makes it special.

Just my $.02.

This... When I first saw DG, what made it so awesome was that gold essence when the sun hits it. It really pops. I'd imagine that the effect will away or be greatly diminished with stealth wrap.

Maybe there is a way to test with a modest-sized piece of the stealth film, to see how much, if any, of the metallic is visible through it.

Cool

I am going with Alpine White and Xpel stealth on white and Xpel gloss on black / CF components.
