FDMTL Has Created a Custom Camouflage Porsche Carrera 911

— September 5, 2019 — Autos
FDMTL, the Japanese company, has created a custom Porsche Carrera 911. The car was entered into the "Wrap Like a King" competition and features a camouflage pattern with gold, green and black colors. The custom Porsche Carrera's pattern is made to look like the traditional needlework from Japanese Sashiko.

FDMTL's customized Porsche was created in order to promote handcrafted materials and discourage mass production. The car also features SWF Brushed Black mirrors as well as front lights and grill, which add extra features to the car. The design also has SWF Diamond Amber gloss which creates a metallic aesthetic for the car.

The "Wrap Like a King" competition takes entries from car hobbyists in order to show peoples' skills at customization.
