Stunning, but you missed the parking brake stitching.

They really should have a code for 'all stitching'. You see plenty of custom-stitched cars that missed one part or another off the list.

I have seen this car in person and it is stunning. The blue looks perfect in the daylight and in darker situations it is kind of purple. It is beautiful. The brakes were done at the dealership. The owner is thinking of placing the decals back on, but in different coloring. We are trying to convince him to leave it as is!

I was thinking Mexico blue for my next car (991 GT3 RS), but have definitely changed my mind to Maritime blue after seeing this one! CC, when is it for sale? I'm interested!

Yeah car color is seriously awesome...I do like the 4.0 decal graphics though.

Wonder why they spent all that money on matching stitching and did not do the e-brake stitching too? Wonder if they forgot the steering wheel stitching too?

100 times better looking with the decal delete. The eyebrow decals around the front openings still need to come off. Nice job!

Dealership did not do they painting, they don't do paint work. They sent them out. They were done by New Concept in Plano, TX. The scripts were the dead giveaway. I had Thomas redo the 993/965 calipers of my other 911. My fronts have the same script pattern. He does a fantastic job. They remove by hand every flake of original paint to make sure the new paint is smooth and even. Then they clear coat over after applying the script decals.

That would require respraying the front bumper because those radiator surrounds are paint not decals.
