At Carzwerk, we had the pleasure of detailing the remarkable Neptune Blue GR86 by CUSCO and Toyota. This vehicle, owned by @Inspire_USA, stands out not just because of its striking color but also due to the extensive modifications and enhancements it boasts. In this article, we’ll dive into the specifics of our detailing services, the unique features of the GR86, and why the Neptune Blue GR86 is a show-stopping marvel.
The Neptune Blue GR86 is a perfect blend of aesthetic appeal and performance. This Neptune Blue GR86 is more than just a car; it’s a statement of style and engineering excellence. The deep blue color accentuates the car’s sleek lines and aggressive stance, making it a head-turner on the road and at shows.
We provided a range of top-tier services to ensure the Neptune Blue GR86 is ready to shine at any event.

Highlights
Here’s a detailed look at the services we completed:
The first step in our process was a thorough exterior enhancement. This involves a comprehensive cleaning to remove all dirt, grime, and contaminants from the surface, ensuring the Porsche racing yellow paint is ready for the next steps.
Next, we tackled paint correction, especially focusing on the aftermarket add-on parts. Paint correction is crucial for eliminating minor imperfections such as swirl marks and scratches, restoring the paint’s original luster. Given the Neptune Blue color’s depth, this step ensures the car looks flawless.
We applied a high-quality ceramic coating to protect the car’s paintwork. Ceramic coating adds a durable layer of protection against environmental contaminants, UV rays, and minor abrasions. It also enhances the shine, making the Neptune Blue GR86 look even more stunning.
The interior of the GR86 received our special interior service treatment. We meticulously cleaned and treated all surfaces, restoring the original matte appeal of the leather and trim pieces. This service ensures the interior matches the exterior’s pristine condition.
Dry ice detailing is a revolutionary cleaning technique that safely and effectively cleans various automotive components without damaging delicate parts. This method was particularly useful for cleaning the undercarriage and engine bay of the Neptune Blue GR86.
Thank you Inspire USA @inspire_usa for the support as always. After the Spoon Honda DC5 and Spoon Honda S2000.

“GR86” is not just a model identifier but a representation of the car’s essence. The “G” refers to Gazoo Racing, Toyota’s racing development team, while “R” represents ‘Racing’. The “86” pays homage to the AE86, a series of sport compact cars produced by Toyota in the mid-80s, renowned for their balance of power and handling.
The GR86 carries forward this legacy, blending innovative technology with classic design elements to create a vehicle that embodies the past, present, and future of Toyota’s racing heritage.

This exhaust system not only enhances the car’s performance but also gives it a more aggressive sound, fitting for a show car.

Proper masking tape is used to prevent unnecessary damage to trims and panels. It’s a time consuming process but damage coupe be irreversible and expensive.
The finish sure it’s disappointed but that’s typical from bodyshop. The following images will demonstrate our expertise in Paint Correction methods and their effectiveness. To provide context, paint correction procedures on these panels usually require two to five times the effort compared to standard paint correction processes. It would be unrealistic to anticipate that these areas would be addressed and yield similar results through standard paint correction services.
We also got the Project Kics R40 Iconix lug nuts clean up to match the clean Work Emotion ZR10 Wheels.
Once we elevate the vehicle using the lift, it becomes clear that this is not your typical car modification routine. The distinct Cusco blue, mirroring the exterior Neptune blue remarkably, seems as if it was originally designed to be a part of this vehicle straight off the assembly line.

Last generation Toyota 86 to a GR86 involves more than just a simple badge swap. The GR86 is a newer model with notable improvements and enhancements over the Toyota 86. While both cars share the same FT86 platform, the GR86 offers more power, a revamped interior, and updated styling. Features such as a rear spoiler, push-start ignition, and improved suspension could be added to a Toyota 86 as modifications, but these changes do not equate to a full upgrade to a GR86.
A car sporting the GR badge is a testament to Toyota Gazoo Racing’s commitment to producing track-tested vehicles with the essence of a true sports car. The GR86 is no exception.
Driving the GR86 is a powerful 2.4L 4-Cylinder Boxer Engine, pushing out 228 horsepower and 184 lb.-ft. of torque. The enhanced torque curve significantly improves 0-60 acceleration, perfectly marrying speed and stability.
