Bader's 991 GT3 Build Thread.

Hello Everyone,
Hope all is well, a quick introduction I just got my 991 GT3 last week, so far in love with the car. Its my 1st Porsche, was between this and a BMW M6 Gran Coupe. In my country of Saudi Arabia, the dealer never ordered any GT3's. Only Carrera S/4S, & Tubros. Only GT3's in the country are the ones ordered by the clients themselves. So its safe to say the GT3 is rare in Saudi, I couldn't find any for sale, and the dealer couldn't order me any so I got one from Dubai.

Here are the plans for the car:
-Wheels to be painted gloss black.
-Car to be fully wrapped in another color.
-Carbon bits for the interior & exterior.
-Centerlock aftermarket forged wheels (recommend a style)
-Exhaust ( still deciding on which to get, recommendations?)

Before we go into the photos, I'd like to share pictures of my last project car. my 2008 Audi S5, this was my car when I was in the states. It had a complete makeover done a few times as seen below.

& now we move on to the GT3, got a few questions before we move onto the photos.

-I have PCM, plugged my iphone 6 via bluetooth for calls. How come when I watch a video or get a text message on my phone I cant hear any sound? how can this be fixed?
-Dealer says to fill oil the car needs to be there for a full day, what oil can I use to fill up the car and how much do I put in if my oil level is on minimum?
-can anyone direct me into a direction where I can get an aftermarket rear view camera/ sensors?

& now finally the photos.

Will keep the thread updated.

Great GT3. I am partial to the white with red seat belts...That car is a different league than the S5.

I had a phantom black 6 speed 09 s5 as a DD back in the day it was the biggest piece of s**t I ever owned. Between the carbon cleaning, front control arms and lack of power it was embarrassing. The APR super charger was the only fix. I remember your car from A5OC though.

I am on my second 991 and both have been trouble free. Enjoy the new car in health.

Congrats! Make sure you check-in on Rennlist as well.

I'll make sure to post more frequent updates.

So here is the latest update, about a few months ago I had a mini car accident which lead to the wrap being damaged on 1 side of the car. It did protect the car from getting scratched.
Also my parts came in, so I shipped my car to Bydesign Motorsport on the eastern region of Saudi. I just got it back a few days ago, and this is the outcome.

-HRE P101 in Gloss Black
-Tire Stickers

Will keep you updated with any additions on the car.

Looks fantastic!! I have been looking at the BBS or the HRE for my GT3 and your's HREs tipped the scales for me. Love the look!

The car looks great! Nice choice on wheels as well. I prefer it without the blue wrap.

Pictures aren't showing up for me.

Update:
Ordered a few more parts for the car to be installed, and they are as follows:
-Akrapovic Headers
-Rear View Camera
-Extended Carbon Fiber Paddle Shifters
-Carbon Fiber Chrono Eye Lid
-Carbon Fiber Dive Plates
-Changing the Wheel/ Caliper color combo, if you have any recommendations please do share.

Please find below some photos by a few different professional photographers.
