I'd love to know what they did with the OEM rear lights, probably binned them going by the decisions they made on the rest of the car.

    Extremely satisfying video Matt. Congrats so far. Now please go the extra mile and give the seats some love as well. Colour lock has amazing products which help to get the leather back to as good as new condition and get rid of that greasy shine. 1) Clean of grease and dirt 2) Dye the faded and worn areas and 3) Close off with conditioning and sealing the leather and be left with a nice matt (..) finish. As long as there are no rips in the leather the result will amaze you and will be well worth your time spent. And as others suggestes, the tails should be swapped for the OEM white-red. Personally I’d prefer the OEM Turbo wheels in silver as well but that is really a minor detail.

    I'm surprised they got that paint to hold out against that primer in as little coats as they did. Yellow DOES NOT cover 😤😤😤😡
    Color is great! You're doing the lords work with this 911T 💪🏾💪🏾

    New seals for the windows would give It an even fresher look but so impressed with this so far!

    Now its a sweet ride for sure. Will you do something about the rear tail lights? Have to get the last bit of that black paint off it.

    Anybody knows, when repainting a car. Do you need to only wet sand the existing panel, or just sand out the existing clear?

      I'm not expert, depends on the situation.
