It's actually a pretty cool idea, sort of an extension on clear bra. The ultimate paint protection.

I have seen a Gallardo that has like zebra stripes before too, same sort of thing. In fact, technology like this (with patterns) is what a lot of manufactures use to hide the surface detail of designs in the last stages of testing, to hide the surface details from the press.

I've seen that car before too. About a month ago here in Buckhead where I work (Pinnacle building). I saw it in a parking space and I do agree, it looks better in person.
