There are cars, and then there are icons. The Porsche 911 GT3 RS is firmly in the latter category — a motorsport-derived machine that’s just as comfortable tearing up the Nürburgring as it is turning heads on the street. When a customer brought in their brand-new Shark Blue 992 GT3 RS, it wasn’t just another job for us at Assetti Performance — it was a privilege.

Why PPF on a GT3 RS is not an option, it’s a must.

The 992 GT3 RS isn’t just fast — it’s aerodynamic perfection. Every vent, every crease, every aggressive line is functional. And when you’re investing in a car like this, the last thing you want is stone chips, road rash, or environmental damage dulling its razor-sharp looks.

That’s where Paint Protection Film (PPF) comes in. It’s the first line of defence against the elements, shielding your investment without compromising its aesthetics.

The Star: Shark Blue

Shark Blue is one of Porsche’s most striking colors — deep, bold, and unapologetically attention-grabbing. But it also has zero room for error when it comes to protection installs. Any edge, misalignment, or air bubble would be obvious. That’s why our install process for this GT3 RS had to be absolutely flawless.

Our Process

At Assetti Performance, our PPF installations are based on trusted templated patterns with some Assetti style tweaks ensuring you get the best coverage. For this GT3 RS, we used XPEL Ultimate Plus, known for its durability, optical clarity, and self-healing properties.

Here’s how we handled it:

• Full body wrap: From the aggressive front bumper to the massive rear wing, every panel was protected.
• Edge wrapping: We tucked every edge where possible for a seamless, invisible finish.
• Precision trimming: Using plotter-cut templates modified in-house for better coverage, especially around those signature aero elements.
• Panel-by-panel inspection: After curing, we checked for any lift points, bubbles, or inconsistencies under studio lighting.

The result? Invisible protection. Just pure Shark Blue brilliance with peace of mind behind it.

The Details Matter

This wasn’t just a standard PPF job. The 992 GT3 RS has intricate aero components, carbon fiber intakes, and a widebody stance that demands expert hands. We took extra care around the front dive planes, vented fenders, and active aero surfaces to ensure everything stayed functional and protected.

Beyond PPF

After the wrap, we finished the car with a ceramic top coat to enhance gloss and ease of maintenance. The owner now has not only a protected car but one that’s easier to keep clean and showroom-fresh.

Final Thoughts

Working on a car like the 992 GT3 RS is always special. But when it looks this good — and when the customer wants nothing short of perfection — it becomes a benchmark job.

At Assetti Performance, we don’t just install PPF — we elevate the experience of owning a supercar. If you’ve got something special in your garage, let’s talk about how to keep it that way.
