This 1996 Porsche 993 came to us looking good but leaving looking sharp. The owner wanted something that honored the car's classic lines while giving it a more aggressive, modern edge. That's exactly what we went for.

We started with a full polish to bring the silver paint back to life. On a car this age, paint can get dull and lose that deep, wet look over time. A proper machine polish cuts through the surface-level imperfections and brings back the clarity that makes a car like this really pop under sunlight.

Then came the wheels. The original silver finish looked fine, but gloss black powder coating completely changed the character of this car. It's a subtle shift that makes a huge visual impact - the dark wheels against that cool silver paint create a contrast that's hard to ignore. Powder coating is also far more durable than paint, so the finish holds up against brake dust, heat, and road grime without chipping or fading.

We take cars like this seriously. A 993 is an iconic machine, and every detail matters - from the way the paint reflects light to the finish on every spoke. That's the standard we hold ourselves to on every car that comes through our shop.

Whether you're prepping for a show or just want your car looking its best on the street, the combination of professional paint polishing and custom wheel finishing is one of the most impactful things you can do for an older vehicle's appearance.
