$65,000 Paint Restoration for This Porsche 918 Spyder!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 чер 2020
- When this beautiful Porsche 918 Spyder Hypercar came to us, it had a vinyl wrap all over the car that had been applied to take the car on a rally. Unfortunately, vinyl wraps do not protect paint anywhere near as well as PPF (paint protection film), and when we removed the vinyl the car had a noticeable number of stone chips.
Just like us, the owner of this car has an eye for detail and gave to go ahead to make the car perfect again. However, from Porsche, the paint was a $65,000 option, so it wasn't going to be an easy task. We professionally stripped the car, prepared the panels for painting, and carefully applied all the layers required to perfectly match the factory finish of Porsche Liquid Metal.
After that, we flattened and polished every panel to produce reflections that meet the Topaz standard, and locked in that perfect paint with our full paint protection film package, covering every painted and carbon section with a virtually invisible gloss protection layer. This prevents stone chips, scratches, and swirl marks, guaranteed for a minimum of 5 years.
The final step was to add Acid Green details for the customer, and then ceramic coat the entire body to repel dirt and water. Just like that, we have the perfect Porsche 918!

For those who are unsure, Porsche Liquid Metal is a $65k option when new from Porsche. This treatment does not cost $65k
I understand, but in what order should i think when it comes to the price of the treatment?
@@Vse_yob i bet its north of 65
Amazing work topaz. 👌
Absolutely amazing as usual! Question: why not PPF while the panels were removed?
It’s best to check how the light reflects on the panels when they sit on the car to make sure they’re all perfect first
Pays for $65000 paint option from Porsche.......proceeds to wrap car in camo
Who cares. Wraps come off. Also helps to protect the paint.
He wrapped the car to help protect the paint (and im sure make it look cool) only for a road rally event.
@@ryanpeck3377 He probably thought he protected the paint with a wrap, but it didn't obviously. At least not how you want on a car like that with a paintjob like that.
Bro he just doesn’t even care this 65K is the same dollar for us but for him
Maybe this is one of the few cars which are actually driven and it got in the gravel bed/ the car in front went of the track...Then he wrapped it camo to hide the damage
Fascinating... And thanks for the soft music, rather than the manic beats lots of people would use!
Very true, love this majestic and calm music 🔥
Do u know to name of the song?
@@mg00 For those wondering, this music is actually a "rip off" of Hanz Zimmer's BBC's Planet Earth soundtrack.
@@mg00 Thank you!
@@Jimistroll but which song title?
The fine attention to detail paired with the music is therapeutic
The colour suit that Porsche PERFECTLY!! So beautiful!!
Id like to see how damaged it was to require a full respray
@MJ Mail My guess is its just some company enjoying scamming rich people
Umn911 *it’s
I think it wasn't so bad, so they didn't show it. lol
They really should have shown it, repainting already lowers value
@@Umn911 rich people aren't easy to scam like you think. they didn't get rich from being vulnerable and retarded.
Can a car be disgustingly beautiful? Well, this 918 is it. Simply stunning. Great job.
Just love Nabil...this guy is always smiling and excited about his business. The world needs more of him.
You never dissappoint your viewers Topaz... Another awesome and relaxing detail... It needs an another level of skills altogether to make an already beautiful car look more stunning. Seriously, awesome work... And god bless you.
Thank you for your kind words
When a paint job costs more than my yearly salary
As a car guy, I've been known to justify some absurd costs. But I'm not sure I can get behind this kind of money. I love the service for what it is and I think Topaz are second to none, but that number doesn't make sense and I think that this is another example of how the rich don't know when they're being scammed.
Jon are you joking?
The rich have too much money so they dont mind probabaly paying double of this until the job is done. A stage 2 correction for me and I'm happy lol which would cost a fraction of this by someone credible or has footage showing good work. Just shop around
In that same boat
@@amarrashid599 You ddin't understand the video, the job didnt cost 65k
Dream Car in my dream colour and the only way I'll own one will be in a dream!! Great job guys 👍🏻
Dreams do come true sometimes!
Thanks for watching. One day!
@@RayNLA Fingers crossed!!!
@Dommo
I’m rooting for you brother.
Enjoy and share when you get it!
If you believe it you can achieve it
The attention to detail is extraordinary, the old adage about getting what you pay for as true today as it has ever been. A very enjoyable watch.
Thanks for watching
I am speechless. I forever remember this car and video. Thank you!!
Thanks for watching
Watching all the care and love put into the work for this car....it brings tears to my eyes.

Much love from Canada!
You nailed it again, Guys! Best in the business, as per usual!
You're the best!
Not when they dealed with our testerossa 😢
Stefan Bostandjiev what happened?
Stefan Bostandjiev hard to polish a turd
Mbal 40 wtf u on about. When they polished the paint they had left some stains of some sort. Then they put some cheap ppf over it. When we received it we were not happy so we took it to a specialist to re-do the car. But when he took off the ppf, the paint started chipping. Topaz say if a ppf is put on properly it should be super easy to take off without destroying the paint
Absolutely brilliant, Nabil.... absolutely brilliant 👍🏻🥃
Thanks for you kind words
It costs nothing to dream until it becomes reality. Simply stunning 👏👏👏🇦🇺
Thanks for watching
You guys are the best, the detailing on the 918 spyder is mesmerizing, keep up the good job guys
Thanks for watching
My only question is, why would someone respray a car only for some minor rockchips and all, doesn't that depreciate the car's value greatly?
I didn't understand that too.
Not if it’s done properly...
If it did the job at TOPAZ, it values more than when lefted the factory imo
Gustavo de Caires Anhaia A repainted car will never be worth the same as a original example now and certainly not in the future. A true collector or dealer will slate the car 100%.
I didn't understand it too.. Didn't made any sense to repaint a car for some rockchips. There is 100% chance that the color from the rest of the car is a little bit off, or if it is painted completely, people can tell that it has been repainted and will wonder if it has been crashed...
Amazing job, the car looks like a work of art, stunning!
Seeing work of this calibre is truly outstanding. Its real artisan skills of the modern age, and is a wonderful display of genuine passion and quality taking precedence over commerciality.
Topaz is more than just a paint shop, you guys are artists! What a mega video and car!
Thanks for your kind words
Every time I see this car I'm blown away, such a stunner. Lovely work restoring her coat.
It's funny . I've flatted a d polished hundreds of vehicles over many years. I never really thought of how many times l could have flatted through the lacquer but when l see your craftsmen l get the jitters! Thanks for sharing.
😁😎 Ooooh TOPAZ you guys are too much! ... Ultimate Work!
I have to crack up every time this dude is on video because he is the quintessential car salesman notwithstanding he doesn’t sell cars
Greatest car ever made. Period.
The workmanship and attention to detail is absolutely incredible.
Great job wrecking the $68,000 dollar paint job 👍
i used to think you guys were scamming rich people when i first saw you years ago, but i can see you are true artists now.
Thanks for watching
Fantastic finish 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
That's incredible, worth every penny to get it to that standard.
It's what we do!
@@TopazDetailing agreed, amazing results!
Ferdinand Porsche himself would have been proud!
Respect guys👌 ... Paint shop and Detailing together
Don’t you need to wait 2-3 weeks after painting before wrapping/ppf:ing?
clearly not as the whole job was done in just over 14 mins.
Yeah, ideally it is best to wait a month before applying any waxes or wraps on fresh paintwork.
You don't know the timeframe
Liquid metal coloured jeans too! That’s perfection!
Thr 918 syder is my all time fav car
it doesn't get any better!
many greetings
Marcel/ Suisse 👋😉🇨🇭
Topaz has very talented technicians
Song used? I have watched this so many times. Just beautiful work, precision and most of all the passion going into work like this.
Exquisite work fellas
Top work! Greeting from Malaysia.
Thanks for watching
i really enjoy detailing videos, but i think going 4k video can help showcase just how much work goes into detailing and especially on a car like this and its extravagant process of restoration deserves more than 1080p.
That Paint must come from the moon , madness .
i don't know but to me it felt like watching DaVinci painting his masterpiece.
Thanks for watching
@Stev Rex it's called over-exgaration to show appreciation for the wonderfull job they do. Which they saw and replied thankfully for it. Only an idiot would reply with such a hatefull comment. Guess this points that haters stay hating. Go handwash your Daewoo Matiz.
I love that the owner drove and enjoyed the car
Just perfect job well done Topaz
Thank you for your kind words
Really love your channel! I wish you guys could film in 4 K though. Would be great to see the cars in high quality video!
Simply amazing id love to be able to complete all the workings in this it would be so amazing being able to work for yourselves and being able to complete work on such an amazing car
Thanks for watching
Stunning finish to such a great looking rare super car . It would be nice to see how the protection film is measured to fit
That’s a secret 😉
That is the ultimate paint job!
Beautiful Job.
Such a beautiful car! Probably my favourite of all time.
Thanks for watching
7:10 why are the panels so flimsy on a supercar? Really enjoy your channel and all your videos also great music 🎵
Another great job done by topaz great work 👍👍👍
Thank you so much 😀
Correct me if im wrong, but isnt is bad to apply ppf so soon? Like doesn't the paint need to cure?
I doubt they bother to tell us that it sat for days while they waited for that. It's all about quality and quality takes time and everyone knows that. Cheers!
Hey Topaz when can the ceramic coating be installed after painting the car? how long do you have to wait to be able to put it? Cheers
How long after the respray do you wait to apply the ppf?
How long did you let the paint settle before PPF was installed? As far as i know it takes week for the paint to dry completly before you can do any wrap on it.
this was therapeutic
Awesome work. 918 is my all time fav hyper car!
That's nice to hear that someone pays more for a PAINT than i can afford to spend on a WHOLE car....
Work harder then and stop complaining
@@superspice5659 Do you really think that super rich are super rich because they work harder than other?! Say that to miners, nurses, surgeons.
@@arturgarncarz3631 why are you still complaing?
Quick question....why do you ceramic coat a self healing ppf, seems redundant. Is it just to enhance the hydrophobic properties of the film? Thanks
Yes exactly that, it repels water and dirt, and makes it easier to clean
What a great job 😍✌🏼❤
Thank you 😁
It looks great indeed
Thanks for watching
These guys are like the Neuro Surgeons of paintwork..
How long do you need to wait before applying PPF?
Depends on how you treat the Paint, the least I saw was 6 days I think but sometimes up to 60-90 days
Many hearts From Kurdistan Irak to you and your job Mr.Nabeel
Thanks for watching
Very nice Job and this car is stunning
Thanks for watching
The 918 is perfection personified.....along with the Carrara GT and the 959
Kudos and amazing work by Team Topaz
Just came across this channel and they do amazing work
AMAZING video. The music got old pretty quickly, but very informative and great video quality.
Nothing can beat acid green color of porch
Porsche: this paint option is $65K
Me: Ok, so don’t paint the car please !!
The music is fire
Very enjoyable to watch your video.
Thanks for watching
Incredible, I relate the detailers at Topaz to the craftsman who restore works of art.
Gotta say in the beginning I was eyeing that sweet PC behind him with the RTX card.. SWEET!
Looks fantastic nabil, congrats to your team ⭐️
Thanks for watching
Just seeing the end process really...would have been good to see some of the prep aswell. Also thought you needed to leave a few months before applying PPF on fresh paint ??
It's a 14 minute video. They know what they are doing. Follow Shmee150 on his SLS AMG.
Amazing car, amazing job
Thanks for watching
Topaz set the industry standard for perfection.
Thanks for watching
Casual svj in the back 4:45
Well spotted
keep it good work. your guys are great!
Thanks for watching
Wonderful work sir.
Then tell us how much for painting, correction and protection on this car pls 😊
I think the point is that as the saying goes..if you have to ask how much it costs, you cant afford it anyways 😉
@@ryanpeck3377 Not in this case, as I can afford the car and the paint job if I wanted. Just wanted to find out what he charges
@@richjohn9356 lol.
Amazing work, great video, thank you
You did an awesome job and the attention to detail is just incredible!
Anyway, a car which is used properly needs also some scars. If the car needs to stay perfect forever than its just a garage queen.
Best in the business
Thank you for your kind words
I'm sure there was a good reason, but can you explain why you didn't apply the PPF when the panels were off the car? It seems that would be a bit easier.
This is my favorite car
Wow, very impressive 👍🏻
Thank you very much!
I noticed that after you guys apply ppf on top of the car theres still some sort of "orang peel" on the paint job. Is it because of the ppf or its just a reflection issue ? :o
PPF adds a small amount of orange peel. It’s much better than it used to be
Cause i noticed the gt3 rs with the 100 hour detail with ppf has very very minimal to none of orange peel which i gotta say HELLA AWESOME !
Fantastic paint job. Didn't know you guys hired JOHN WICK for polishing :D
Yeah we did!
Wow! I am a lost for words. Fantastic job done on that beautiful 918 Spyder Hypercar. So here is my question. Is there a waiting period before applying PPF on a freshly painted car? I ask this because my 2016 E400 Mercedes, just had the front bumper recondition freshly painted in preparation for PPF. The PPF being applied is a 10 year self healing high end PPF. Thanks
how long do you have to let the paint cure before installing PPF?
48 hrs i think
That's what I thought. At least a few days for sure....
Normally u must wait weeks.
Very curious to hear Topaz's answer to this. I’m thinking weeks too.
I salute your skill
This is art 👌
That colour is amazing.
Thanks for watching!
