When we bring you the latest look-at-me wraps, these usually have to do with Porsches (anybody up for a Martini) or Ferraris. However, today we want to show you what happens when a pickup truck owner decides his machine needs to draw attention.
We're referring to the Chevrolet in the image above. This is a current-generation Silverado whose driver went for a rusty wrap. We're not sure whether the man simply liked the idea or wanted to spark a bit of a truck-related rust discussion, but the latter effect was achieved on Reddit, which is where we came across this bed bearer.

In our book, this Chevy doesn't look half bad and since the wrap actually helps with the paint protection, the move seems to bring double benefits. After all, many trucks end up with premature rust due to stone chips, so going for a protection film, be it transparent or as wild as the one we have here makes full sense.

The design of the blue collar machine's second skin even goes as far as simulating some rivets on the wheel arches, so we're talking elaborated styling details here.

Returning to the Porsches mentioned in the intro, you shouldn't assume that all Zuffenahusen machine drivers go for a shiny finish. For instance, one of the most eye-catching 911 we've shown you delivered a worn-out take on the now-usual Martini makeover.

The wrap we're talking about adorns a GT3 RS PDK. We've brought you more than a few 991 GT3 RS wraps and we have to admit that the one mentioned above sits on the podium when it comes to the originality of the approach. Still, nothing beats a truly wild 911 GT3 RS paint job.

As for Ferrari wraps, since the 458 is now retired, more and more owners are turning to such a solution to make their V8 Fezzas stand out in the supercar crowd.
