2018 Porsche GT2 RS

Client Objective:
To transform an already iconic GT2 RS into a lighter, sharper, and more visually aggressive road weapon — without compromising its factory engineering excellence.

Overview:
This 2018 Porsche 911 GT2 RS arrived as one of the most potent production cars ever built by Stuttgart — but our client wanted more: more presence, more sound, and more bespoke detail.

We delivered a build that’s as striking as it is functional.


🔩 Upgrades & Enhancements

🔹 Full Custom Carbon Fibre Body Kit

We replaced key body panels with ultra-lightweight carbon fibre components, carefully designed to preserve the GT2 RS’s aerodynamic balance while enhancing its visual aggression. Components included:

  • Carbon front splitter

  • Side skirts

  • Rear diffuser

  • Ducktail spoiler (bespoke design)

  • Carbon rear wing endplates

  • Mirror caps and vent trims

Each piece was finished in high-gloss UV-stable clear coat, enhancing both the weave and the car’s exotic appeal.

🔹 Soul Performance Exhaust System

The factory titanium exhaust was replaced with a Soul Performance Valved Exhaust System:

  • Benefits: Sharper throttle response, reduced backpressure, and a deep, motorsport-inspired tone under load

  • Result: A visceral soundtrack worthy of the GT2 RS badge, with valved control for city discretion


🏁 Results

  • Weight Reduction: ~12 kg (net saving from carbon and exhaust)

  • Aesthetic Impact: Substantial — darker, leaner, and more purposeful

  • Sound Profile: Raw, resonant, and highly responsive

  • Client Feedback: “It feels like the car Porsche would’ve built if they weren’t bound by production compromise.”
