Performance and builds · Planned end to end

Bespoke builds

Tune, exhaust, wheels, carbon, lighting and protection, planned as one project so each change is chosen with the others in mind and nothing has to be undone.

What it is

A bespoke build is several kinds of work on one car, planned together from the start. The tune, the exhaust, the wheels, the carbon, the lighting and the paint protection are chosen so they suit each other and the car.

Order matters. Performance and mechanical work come first, then styling and paint, then correction, and protection film goes on last. Plan it that way and nothing has to come off again to make room for the next step.

Who it is for

  • Owners with a finished car in mind, not a list of parts
  • Enthusiast cars built in stages over time
  • Anyone combining performance and styling work

How the job runs

  1. Plan

    We agree the finished car first, then the parts, the order of work and the budget in stages.

  2. Sourcing

    Parts are ordered in the order they will be fitted, so the car is not waiting.

  3. Performance and mechanical

    Tuning hardware, exhaust, wheels and suspension go on first.

  4. Styling and paint

    Kits, carbon and lighting are fitted and painted in the booth.

  5. Protection

    Correction, then film and coating last, over the finished car.

  6. Handover

    The whole build is walked through with you, with every stage recorded on your tracking link.

What goes on the car

We name the exact product, its specification and its warranty in writing on your estimate, so you know what is going on the car before you approve the work.

Options

Built in one go
The whole plan carried out in one visit.
Built in stages
One plan, carried out over several visits as budget and parts allow.

Aftercare

  • Each part of the build comes with its own care instructions at handover.
  • Ask for a check-up after the first month of driving.

What it will not do

  • Imported parts set the pace; we plan around lead times.
  • Some combinations of parts do not work together; we tell you before ordering.

Questions

Bespoke builds, asked and answered.

Can I build the car in stages?

Yes. We plan the whole build first, so each stage fits the next, then carry it out over several visits.

In what order should work be done?

Mechanical and performance work first, then body kits, carbon and paint, then correction, and protection film last. Doing it in that order means nothing has to come off again.

Do I get one point of contact?

Yes. The whole build is run from the workshop, with tuning coordinated with GTTunerz, and every stage is on your tracking link.
