I’m in Vegas, so I put visible tint on whatever car I daily drive. On my weekend cars, I like the clean look of tint-less so put the Air-80 film that they use on windshields.

Vegas in summer is nuts so I get that. I couldn't handle that kind of heat just walking around...

Looks great! Still surprised by how much it sold for.

I was looking at your outside photos by the warehouse door and just looking at it I was thinking to myself that this guy is in Vegas.

Have seen you on IG. Love Guards Red. 👍

Dropped off today for PPF and the tint removal/replacement. Ended up spending more on the PPF plan than anticipated thanks to my OCD. Will post pics as I get them.

Picking up tomorrow. PPF completed (replaced front half, mirrors, rockers, a-pillars and roof) and tint on rear just needs to be removed/replaced with the clear “tint”.

Then back to the Detailer to finish up and ceramic the places PPF was done.

Updated the first post with pics. Just need the new wheels (likely in May) and then will be done with the changes. SUPER happy with how good it looks with the new PPF, polish/ceramic and Air80 window film. Love it.

Updated the 2nd post with pictures from a photoshoot yesterday. Just have the wheels to swap out and need to get the bumper off to make the front grills look new. The car really looks brand new otherwise.

Awesome deal on this car and it looks great. I believe silver suites any 911 very well. Enjoy your new ride!

It was just brought to my attention that this was my car originally. Looks like the intermediate owner made quite a few changes. I originally saw it at the factory in Leipzig for Euro Delivery, but there was a licensing problem and I was given a Turbo loaner instead. Here are a few pics from my ownership (great car):
