Wow. That has to be one of the least common liveries I've seen. Very cool.

Default A vintage look for this 997 Carrera S cabrio.

I'm glad yo like it kkswow12. Let's see if I can send some extra pics of the interior. BTW, car has been done in Madrid. Pepita fabric was found in England, new top in Germany, and the wheels come from the Fuchs factory in Germany. It will not be easy to keep the top in "as new" condition but keeping the car covered and in a garage, help.



Center front seats.



And door panels.







Perfect finish in the top area.
