Some Porsches are just a little too rare and a little too expensive to get our hands on, I’m looking at you Porsche 911RSR 2.8. However, just because we can’t get the real deal, that doesn’t mean that we are out of options. If you are happy driving something a little less genuine, then it is completely possible for you to convert your more common classic Porsche, into something truly special. For those who believe in keeping classic cars in pristine stock condition, then you may consider this a cardinal sin of mechanics. But, the heart wants what the heart wants, and every year, hundreds of Porsches get the Backdate treatment. And we have had a hand in a fair few of those transformations!<\/p>\n

Our expert mechanics and our body shop team are experts in converting Porsches to something more desirable, from altering the frame of the car to implementing all of the model appropriate accessories, you cannot get closer to genuine than at Design911.<\/p>\n

Too far away to use us? Then fear not, we sell our backdate parts online<\/p>\n
