The Porsche 911 Carrera 4S stands as one of the most complete sports cars in production today. It blends the well-known everyday Porsche usability with unmistakable motorsport DNA. With its wide stance, rear-engine layout, and all-wheel drive, the 4S delivers precision handling and exhilarating performance in equal measure. This particular example arrived at our Hawthorne, CA facility, ready for a comprehensive transformation that focused on both aesthetics and functionality.
The idea behind this Porsche 911 project was simple: elevate its exterior appeal, enhance its visuals, protect its every surface for long-term enjoyment, and refine its mechanical traits to make it even better. The project includes a complete vehicle paint machine polishing and premium detailing, making its paint ready for the gorgeous complete vehicle color-change vinyl wrap in Oracal Gloss Jetstream Blue. Furthermore, to protect the newly applied color-change vinyl wrap, we’ve added a professional-grade ceramic coating, refinished the OEM brake caliper, restored the plastic trim, and finally, installed a set of carefully selected performance and protection upgrades.
Before the color-change wrap was installed, the Porsche 911 Carrera 4S underwent a complete paint machine polishing process. This foundational step is essential for any high-level wrap installation, as it refines the factory paint by removing surface defects such as light scratches, swirl marks, and hazing. By restoring clarity and uniformity to the paintwork, the surface becomes perfectly smooth and free of inconsistencies. This level of preparation ensures that the vinyl adheres evenly, maintains long-term durability, and delivers a flawless visual result without imperfections showing through over time.
With the surface properly perfected, the exterior was transformed with a full color-change vinyl wrap in Oracal Gloss Jetstream Blue. This striking shade brings a bold, contemporary edge to the 911 while respecting its timeless proportions. The high-gloss finish amplifies reflections across the bodywork, accentuating the flowing roofline, sculpted doors, wide rear haunches, and carefully engineered aerodynamic surfaces. Jetstream Blue injects modern vibrancy into the Carrera 4S, giving it commanding road presence while preserving the elegance and design purity that define Porsche’s iconic sports car lineage.
Once the wrap was complete, the entire vehicle was sealed with a professional-grade ceramic coating. This coating protects the vinyl surface from UV exposure, environmental contaminants, and staining while enhancing gloss and depth. Jetstream Blue takes on a liquid-like shine, with reflections that remain crisp and consistent in all lighting conditions.
The ceramic coating also simplifies maintenance, allowing dirt, water, and debris to release easily from the surface. This ensures the wrap remains vibrant and protected, preserving the transformed appearance of the 911 for years to come.
To complement the exterior transformation, the OEM brake calipers were custom powder-coated, adding a refined and performance-focused visual accent behind the wheels. The refreshed calipers sharpen the overall presentation and highlight the braking system that supports the 911’s dynamic capabilities.
All OEM plastic trim received a professional rehydration treatment. This process restores faded exterior plastics, deepening color and improving uniformity across the vehicle. The result is a clean, factory-fresh appearance that enhances contrast against the bold blue finish.
Beyond visual refinement, a series of carefully selected upgrades were implemented to enhance the Porsche 911 Carrera 4S from a performance and driving perspective. A BMC F1 air filter was installed to optimize airflow and improve filtration efficiency, allowing the engine to breathe more freely while maintaining factory-level reliability and fitment. This upgrade supports sharper throttle response and consistent performance, especially during spirited driving, without introducing unnecessary noise or compromising drivability.
To protect the vehicle’s vital cooling systems, radiator protection grill screens were added behind the front openings. These screens shield delicate radiators and condensers from road debris, stones, and insects that can cause damage over time. For a performance vehicle driven as intended, this subtle upgrade offers essential protection while preserving airflow and maintaining a clean, factory-correct appearance.
The suspension was further refined with an E-Motion rear lower control arm fork upgrade, enhancing rear-end stability and improving control under acceleration and cornering loads. This upgrade contributes to a more planted and predictable driving feel, particularly during aggressive driving. To complete the transformation, the BPAS team added wheel spacers, ensuring a flush fitment and pushing the wheels outward to sit perfectly within the arches. The result is a more assertive stance that complements the 911’s wide-body design while improving both aesthetics and road presence.
This Porsche 911 Carrera 4S represents a carefully balanced fusion of artistry, protection, and performance enhancement. From its striking Jetstream Blue exterior transformation to the refined mechanical and functional upgrades beneath the surface, every aspect of the build was executed with clear intent and meticulous attention to detail. Each step was approached with precision, ensuring that the car not only commands attention visually but also delivers confidence, reliability, and enjoyment behind the wheel.
Guided by Bulletproof Auto Spa’s expertise, every phase of the project was completed to the highest standard. The result is a 911 that looks exceptional from every angle while remaining fully prepared for real-world driving. Protection and enhancement work were carried out in harmony, allowing the vehicle to maintain its performance edge while benefiting from long-term durability and ease of maintenance.
