Default 991 GT3RS Down Under.

Arrived today, managed to drop past and snap a couple of pics this afternoon...







It goes off to get wrapped tomorrow. I really wanted Paint To Sample (PTS) Gelbgrun (Code 137) and missed the window with Porsche.

So I had a sample painted up and then found the nearest vinyl wrap to match:



Other changes that are happening:

Rear cage removed to get painted in code 137

Cup car bonnet being installed

Fitting yellow door pulls to replace the stock silver ones (the seatbelts are yellow and the door pulls should match).

Fitting the Dundon headers / exhaust setup, can't speak high enough about these guys, Jamie has been fantastic, great support. Looking forwarding to seeing how the headers / exhaust sounds and performs.

Also have the Techart matte carbon pieces arriving next week:

The end colour should be similar to this, maybe a couple of shades difference, but not much.



That should do for now...

I see you have the white painted key -- You need to get your key wrapped too!

Very interesting that you were able to find a wrap that close to 137.

Look forward to seeing it completed.

Awesome! Can't wait to see the final results, oh and I think they put the steering wheel on the wrong side, you should have them look into that..

Congratulations on the new RS. Looking forward to seeing the car wrapped. I wish I had ordered white for this reason.

Seb - nice work mate. Looking forward to seeing it finished, as R Deacon says will be epic like the last one. Looking forward to your report on Charles exhaust, be good if you can get some "before" seat time in by way of comparison once it's fitted. Did you sell the GT3 already?

Macca, this should turn out ok !! I sold my GT3 in July last year so have been patiently hanging out for the RS to arrive. On the excitement scale of 1 - 10 I'm currently pegged at 15....

Will report back on the exhaust and more pics over the next week or so.

This is how you treat a 1 day old RS with 16 miles on the clock....
