The color alone stops you in your tracks.

A rare German-market 993 Carrera 4S finished in a deep violet hue that seems to change with every angle and every cloud overhead. One of those cars that doesn’t need modifications to stand out, it just needs preservation.

For this one, we focused on protecting and refining what was already special:

• XPEL Paint Protection Film
• XPEL Ceramic Window Tint
• Minor cosmetic restoration and detailing touches

The goal wasn’t to change the car. It was to preserve an icon.

Nearly 30 years later, the 993 remains one of Porsche’s most timeless designs, and in a color like this, it’s easy to see why.

🇺🇸 Memorial Day 🇺🇸

Today we pause to honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. Their courage and selflessness are the reason we have the freedom to pursue our passions, build our dreams, and do what we love every day.

From all of us at Driven By Design, thank you to those who served, those who sacrificed, and the families who carry that legacy forward.

This Memorial Day, we remember that freedom isn’t free.

Building cars is what we do.
Creating the right combination is the art behind it.

Our display wall just got an upgrade with new Vossen and ADM Forged wheels now on display at Driven By Design.

Come see them in person.

We’re not looking for a production painter.
We’re looking for a craftsman.

At Driven By Design, our standard isn’t “good enough”, it’s right, every time. Our work lives under lights, on exotics, and in front of clients who notice everything.

If your focus is speed over finish, this isn’t the place.

We’re hiring an experienced automotive painter who understands proper prep, material control, and what it takes to deliver a true high-quality result, consistently.

This is a salary-based position.
We don’t run flat rate. We don’t rush jobs. We do them properly.

Compensation is top-tier and reserved for painters whose work can stand up at the highest level.
This is a long-term opportunity for someone who takes pride in their craft.

If you take pride in your work and your results can hold up under scrutiny, we want to see it.

Serious inquiries only. Your work will speak for you.

The right shoes don’t just change the look…
they change the entire feel of the car.

This R8 on BBS, perfectly spec’d, properly fitted, and dialed in the way it should’ve come from the factory.

Fitment matters. Equipment matters. Experience matters.

Stealth, but make it unmistakable.

That’s was the request from our friends at

This Cadillac Escalade went through a full transformation with XPEL Stealth matte PPF, giving it that satin finish that completely changes how the light hits every panel. From gloss to a smooth, frozen look, same presence, whole new attitude.

We didn’t stop there…
All chrome trim and emblems were painted for contrast, tying everything together with a clean, monochromatic finish.
Smoked taillights finish it off with just the right amount of edge.

OEM luxury… redefined with intention.

OEM+… with a Texas signature.

From color-matched seatbelts to custom painted exterior accents, every detail on this Porsche was designed to flow, inside and out,finished in unmistakable Longhorns orange.

Subtle. Intentional. Impossible to miss.

Presence, refined.

This BMW XM sits exactly how it should, dialed in with MSS Urban lowering springs, paired with 23” Vossen wheels for a proper, aggressive stance that matches its performance.

Out back, Renegade Design spoilers add just the right edge… and this is only the beginning. Full body kit coming soon.

Built with intention.

Low. Wide. Intentional.

This one hits different…

Slammed the right way, this Porsche wagon sits tucked over 22” Vossen wheels with massive Michelin rubber dialed in to perfection. That deep gloss black finish paired with the aggressive stance gives it a presence you feel before it even moves.

Subtle? Not exactly.
Refined? Absolutely.

Every angle works. Every detail intentional.
