Default White 991.2 GT3 Project

My white 991.2 GT3 came in last night and going to pick it up tomorrow. Ordered it back on April 1st and traded in my 991.1 GT3 a couple days later.




Needless to say, I'm pretty stoked.

Here are the full specs:




Dealer removed the Cantrell rollbar from the 2015 and the Sharkwerks exhaust as well.

Here's what I have planned, starting tomorrow eve:

1) Paint Correction - Polish / Glaze / Seal

2) XPEL full coverage - installer will modify patterns based on number of factors (ie. I'll remove headlights and rear badging)

3) Install Sharkwerks bypass / 100mm tips

4) Install Cantrell Rollbar and sub bars - Anyone know if the passenger side seats have a hole for the sub-belt?

5) RSR Livery (Thank you to guys at NS2 Media - Nic & Anthony)

6) Before first track event, will order Girodisc rotors / RaceTechnologies pads from Clark @ Apex Performance.

I'm going to do all the work except for the XPEL install. I'll post pics/videos here as I progress...

The black accents (lower mirrors, door handles, black LEDs, wheels — once they are uncovered haha) look very good on the white. Congrats! Looking forward to seeing the wrap.

I was asking my guy to do the same wrap. Can I buy the same kit from your vendor after they make yours?

Great.. I don't understand why they do that... Cushion is likely the same between driver/passenger... The hole in the seat isn't too bad using a reciprocating saw and a small fine tooth hole saw... But the upholstery work, I don't get. Surprisingly, my 2015 did have a passthrough in the passenger seat cushion. Maybe I'll get lucky again.

Not sure.. whole car XPEL is around 5k. I'm doing the removal of parts, so not sure what that would cost if someone else did it...
