The Porsche 911 Turbo is one of Germany's supercars. It comes stock with a 415 horsepower twin-turbo engine and advanced all-wheel drive. From a standstill, the 911 can hit 100 mph in just over 9 seconds and hit a maximum speed of 189 mph.
This particular vehicle has several "stage 4" components under the hood, thus making it much faster than a stock model. After reading through my posts, you will notice I am a big Germany fan, making it an absolute pleasure to get my hands on this car. Let's begin...
Here is the 911 upon arrival. It looks gorgeous even when it's dirty!
The huge aftermarket wheels just needed some TLC.
The following few pictures will explain the main reason the owner contacted me. The car was recently decked out in stickers. He removed all of them but they left a sticky residue.
The driver's side.
The passenger's side.
Here is the worst of it on the hood. I told you this car was decked out! If your not careful and use the wrong products, you can easily destroy the paint trying to remove this extremely thick adhesive.
I had a few ideas on how I would tackle these obstacles. I decided to call the guys at Crown Auto Supply in Salem to help point me in the right direction. BIG thanks to those guys!
Here is a picture of the website adhesive removed.
I continued to make my way around the car. It was tedious work to say the least.
~~~AFTER SHOTS~~~
The 911's wheels, wheel wells, and tires were cleaned then dressed.
The paint was washed, sealed, then waxed. What a Porsche should always look like...
Can you tell if there was ever a sticker here?
Or these areas?
My favorite shot.
Porsche is headquartered in Zuffenhausen, a city district of Stuttgart, Baden-Württemberg.
Thanks, as always, for looking!
