996 GT3 correction cont..

As promised more headway on this project car, interior detailed as the Rollcage is being welded in so the rear of the interior will be blocked off. Car will come back hopefully this coming Friday and I will finish the detail and list the Goodies Sharkwerks installed and or swapped on this soon to be very capable(but superclean) track car.

Moton's installed









Interior will be touched up again on the final detailing

The vehicle is finished......... as for the mods I will let Dan or Alex @ Sharkwerks chronicle the list for this "track b***h.

After the car came back from TC Design with the cage welded in and the harnesses installed I re-washed the car and brought it into the shop for the completion work.

Sharkwerks had put the stock wing back on but I removed it and installed the upgaded RS carbonfiber wing(tightness)



Stock wing removed



Light correction was only needed on the wing



Underside of the wing corrected sans LSP



Installing new wing



Upgraded wing installed ready for track duty



Earlier in this thread I corrected the front half of the car's finish to prep for Premier to install the clear bra, now the back half is being done and I removed previous wax build up (under the trim)



Right rear quarter taped off for 50/50 shots



In the final tally the vehicle had five total compounding and polishing steps completed, here is the finish after compounding anf intermediate polishing







I took quite a few inside pics as the weather was very wet outside(although I did get sun pics the next day)



















Before engine pics



Hard water spot build up(not fun to remove)



General crust and dirt



The hoses and this metal bar were dried out



Metal bar corrected



Inside of decklid polished and sealed



Engine bay tightned up

27 total hours spent, 5 total correction steps, 4 coats of sealant applied over 12 hours. Rough GT3 now looking mint, so James head to the track and have fun and I will wipe away any traces in the future of your "track time".

Once again dude you out-did yourself. I don't know how you do it... still after all this time just get better and better! That baby needed some serious work

On our part, we installed a Guard LSD, LWF, Moton Suspension, the RS tail, GT3 seats and cup rotors
