A detailing session with a Porsche 997s Aero. Pics inside...

Just finished detailing my uncle's brand new Porsche 997s. What an awesome looking and sounding car. Figured I'd share a couple of pics for you non-discriminating auto enthusiasts. Enjoy:

Nice car. Love 911's. I think the spoiler was too much but its not that bad either.

Offtopic but its a bitch to maintain a black car.

Nice job.

Yes, the front plate screams NO. I was ticketed and had to drill one on. Hate it.

What could park in that garage other than a motorcycle?

Beautiful car, but why place a 997.1 spoiler (from the GT3) on a 997.2?

It is actually the aero kit option.

That's what my brakes look like after a wash/rain ... maybe not quite that orange, but orange enough. I think it's normal.

The best gift you can give the owner (save for your detail that is) is a $30 set of OE clear sides.

Great job.

looks good, as mentioned, scrub the brakes before taking pics. Just a little 15mph stop will do the trick.
