Workshop Notes
Build Story
Today, it's a Smart #5 Brabus edition. This time, the classic black and red version. The owner, who loves the original Brabus paint scheme, naturally chose the strongest clear paint protection film, GSWF DEFENDER Platinum PPF, for paint protection! The black car with clear protective film makes the glossy paint even more prominent, like a mirror.
