An Alabama 991 Porsche Carrera S traveled to our shop in Atlanta for the works.

Full auto detail
Full interior detail
Silver level paint correction (you'll get an idea of just how intense our Silver level package is)
Full body clear bra installation
CQuartz Finest application

Before we got started on the car, the paint needed some serious love. You will notice some rock chips on the hood as well as the front bumper and rear fenders. These cars are very prone to pitting and heavy rock chips. Having paint protection film installed when the car is new is so very important. While we did backfill the rock chips, it is not a perfect solution. This car only had 7,000 miles on the odometer.










After the paint correction was completed but before the clear bra or paint coating system was installed:






Getting started on the paint protection film installation:









I'm installing the vinyl coating system:







When it was all wrapped up we had a well protected 991 that looked amazing.

Beautiful Porsche. What poor condition it was in. Nice job as always Jean Claude rops:

Really nice job!

I am buying an 80's Porsche 911 which I will get my mechanic friend to rebuild the engine and fix anything mechanical and I will do the paint work and interior.

Your Porsche looks amazing

Wow! Subscribed! Thanks for sharing all that and the promise of future work to come. Great idea to have a single thread to keep returning to.

And i absolutely love the progressive approaches to some tasks. From spray bottles operating upside down to air brushing engine bays! Love this place :dblthumb2:

This Tesla Model S came to us from Chattanooga, TN. for our Gold paint restoration service, clear bra PPF installation on the full front end and Opti-Coat Professional.

The car had almost 30k miles on it and had intense swirl damage, rock chips and rock pitting. While we were able to get the car's paint looking amazing, some damage was too bad to be repaired safely.

850hp GT500 that received minor paint restoration, auto detail and full clear bra paint protection film installation on the hood, front bumper, front fenders, side mirrors and racing stripes.

We installed clear bra PPF on each vinyl stripe and painted surface separately. This increases the labor and time of installation dramatically, but the results make for super happy clients.

Tesla Model S from Marietta, GA. came to us for Modesta BC-05, P-01A and a paint protection film clear bra installation on the full hood, full front fenders, front bumper and side mirrors.

So how does your availability for a new car/customer look? I'm thinking full coating (body, wheels, glass) and any correction that is needed from whatever the factory/dealer did before the coating. You also have listed window tinting in a few project posts (Stingray and IS350) but it isn't listed on your site, so not sure if you offer it or not (but if you did, it is also on my list of things to have done).

I was also toying with the idea of Xpel, but full frontal would probably be 2k+ alone and I'm not sure a BRZ would be worth it (maybe I can think of any chips as battle scars?), especially since I'll have to get new tires pretty quickly due to Toyota/Subaru thinking putting Prius tires on the BRZ was a good idea.

Should be finishing the haggling with the dealer soon...

What did you use to clean the grille on the audi on page one? I have a similar grill design on my ram and it takes a good hour or 2 to get it looking new again. Just curious to know if there is a quicker way.

Give me a call and I can look my schedule over with you. We have appointments stretching more than 2 months out but are currently pretty busy for another month. I don't suppose I need to tell you how important it is that you make it clear the dealership should not touch your car in any way when it arrives...

Iirc, we hand polished each opening. Mf towels, q-tips and a ton of elbow grease. I want to say we used Klasse, iirc.

Yeah, but you know dealerships... I've seen posts about them even ignoring the hanging signs and window signs that say do not wash (I like that CQuartz has a decal that says it, but most service crew probably will never read it).

Since it is after 6 (after your cob) I'll call tomorrow.

Is a prep for coating usually always silver? A lot of the description seems like what is necessary for coatings.

Great talking to you. Getting this done is priority one for me to take care of the car. Interestingly enough, it was your YouTube videos that convinced me (about coating, and I guess even about you ). Which btw, 1 month without a video? YouTube needs more detailing videos.

Believe me, we have plenty of videos coming down the pipes.

Your wheel cleaning video was pretty good. Just need to take some voice lessons. :dblthumb2:

Another Porsche owner from Atlanta decided to allow Detailed Designs Auto Spa to perform an auto detail, paint correction, CQuartz Finest installation and interior detail.

Porsche 997 Turbo Cabriolet





































An example of another volume clear bra installation shop using far more adhesive promoted than is necessarily for the sake of saving time. We safely removed all clear bra residue that was left over.
