Cool Stevie 77 930's new GTS - Clear bra, tint, and bumper mesh grill

Most projects we do combine a series of service that we have become extremely proficient at: paint correction, nano coating, clear bra, and tint. This project is the other gamut of projects we work on...simple and functional...clear bra and tint was all this client requested. Below, is an example of doing the simple tasks in a way that's unique to us and of value to our clients. Enjoy!

Initial Condition

We ALWAYS request clients bring us their project in as "default" state as possible. This client definitely got us what we were looking for







Even though this GTS had less than 50 miles on the odometer, debris gets into the oddest place



Prep prior to clear bra installation

Clay to prep surface of embedded decontamination from transport to US





Hand polished to bring our brilliance and gloss



Most of the 991s we get have these imperfections in the clear coat...







True fix is to lightly sand/compound, then polish. Other option, simply clear bra over it. Here you see left side with clear bra, and right side is the defect...left side is hidden perfectly by clear bra and unnoticeable under any lighting



Clear bra installation

Every installer is unique to his/her craft. We are unique in that our "pre-cut" is VERY close to a CUSTOM installation. We consider it SEMI-CUSTOM and you'll see why























A lot of controversy over headlight installations, we DEFINITELY recommend it and install it 95% of the time. You MUST make sure your installer is comfortable with the process. It's not easy













Extended rockers. We remove the factory small stone guard, and replace it with a piece going from rear fender hips all the way down and across behind the front wheels. Imagine an upside-down hockey stick





Even front bumper attention to detail isn't overlooked







Final result







We applied Suntek CIR60 all around, including windshield. This is a VERY light film but very high performance in that it blocks amazing amount heat, glare, and UV, without looking like you have any tint

To answer your question, I’m right-handed, and couldn’t use my left hand to take a photo of myself claying the car. So, hence why you saw me taking a photo of my left hand with the clay...purely for demonstration purposes, and you’re absolutely right...one should never clay a car wearing a ring...hence why I have mybdetailing techs doing the prep work...I can’t remember the last time I clayed a car...been years 😉

now, I’m more dangerous...I carry a blade 😆

To be honest that is what I thought after seeing the brilliant work you have shown here. That is why I deleted the original post on second thought.

Again, thank you for your reply and congrats.

Can you PM me the pricing on what something of this magnitude would cost? I have ordered my 911T and want to ensure the paints lasts as long as possible

How much would it be to do just the front bumper and front part of the hood?
