PORSCHE 997.1 / BODY, EXHAUST & FINISH

GT3-Inspired Porsche Carrera 4S

This Porsche 911 Carrera 4S received a customer-supplied GT3-style body package, complete exhaust upgrades and a multi-stage exterior finish. Every body component was dry fitted, surfaced, painted and installed before the vehicle received full paint correction and ceramic protection.

01 / FIT & SURFACE PREPARATION

Making Customer-Supplied Parts Fit Properly.

The GT3-style components were first dry fitted to verify alignment, mounting points and transitions into the factory body. Each part was then surfaced and prepared to correct fit and finish before entering the paint process.

02 / BODY & PAINT

A More Aggressive 997.1 Profile.

The exterior package included a GT3-style front fascia, front chin splitter, rocker-panel set and rear fascia. The factory front hood was also refinished so the completed body package would carry a consistent color and finish across the vehicle.

Following paint, each component was installed and aligned to create a cohesive, factory-integrated appearance.

03 / EXHAUST

More Sound from the Flat-Six.

Performance headers and a SOUL Performance exhaust system were installed to give the Carrera 4S a more pronounced exhaust note and a freer-flowing exhaust configuration.

04 / PAINT CORRECTION & PROTECTION

Corrected, Refined and Ceramic Coated.

After installation, the entire vehicle received full-body compounding and paint correction to refine the finish across both the original panels and newly painted components. A Stage 3 ceramic coating was then applied for added gloss, surface protection and easier maintenance.
