The Bentley Continental GTC on the 3SK platform is the third-generation Continental convertible, on sale from late 2019 onwards. The car shares its front clip, fender geometry, side architecture and most of its mechanical hardpoints with the 3SK Continental GT Coupé, but diverges at the rear deck because the OEM Bentley fabric soft-top stows in a redesigned aft compartment that sits where the Coupé's fixed rear deck would otherwise live. Mansory's GTC kit is engineered around that compartment — the fender flares, side strakes, front bumper and bonnet are held common with the Coupé, but the rear bumper assembly and the rear-deck spoiler integration are GTC-specific SKUs.
Sister-cars in the Bentley line on Hodoor: the Continental GT Race-language Coupé for owners who want the trackier visual register; the Continental GT carbon overlay for the reversible build; the Flying Spur 3SK saloon for owners running the four-door sister; and the Bentayga wide-body for the SUV side of the catalogue.
On the 3SK Coupé, the rear deck is a fixed panel and the OEM active rear spoiler integrates into a rigid trailing edge. On the GTC, the rear deck is a multi-piece structure that opens to admit the soft-top into the aft compartment when the roof is folded. Mansory's Coupé rear bumper does not bolt cleanly to this architecture, and the Coupé fixed-wing tooling has nowhere to sit on the convertible's shorter rear deck. The GTC kit ships with a dedicated rear bumper and a low-profile deck-lid kick that respects both the soft-top hinge and the OEM active rear spoiler's full extension travel.
Donor coverage spans the full 3SK GTC engine ladder. The 4.0 V8 biturbo arrives in two states of tune: early GTC V8 at 550 PS / 770 Nm, post-2022 GTC V8 S at 568 PS / 770 Nm — both on the eight-speed dual-clutch with active all-wheel drive. The 6.0 W12 biturbo ships in standard GTC trim at 635 PS / 900 Nm and in GTC Speed trim at 659 PS / 900 Nm with electronic LSD and Bentley Dynamic Ride 48 V active anti-roll. 0-100 km/h spans 4.0 s (V8) to 3.7 s (W12 Speed); top speeds 318-335 km/h. The body kit fits either engine bay; the rear-bumper exhaust cut is the only donor-specific item.
The build is a comprehensive bonded carbon body conversion. OEM bumpers replace, OEM bonnet replaces, OEM fenders are cut back at the factory seam and the bonded carbon flares add width. Hand-laid 2x2 twill weave on visible aerodynamic pieces; PU-RIM composite on the bumper and flare bodies; lacquered visible-weave finish or paint-to-OEM body colour at order.
Body-shop fitment runs 10 to 14 working days at a Bentley-experienced workshop. The rear bumper requires a soft-top clearance check in stowed and deployed positions — run once before paint, once after reassembly.
The Mansory Powerbox is offered on the 4.0 V8 biturbo donor only — both the standard GTC V8 and the GTC V8 S accept the module. With the Powerbox plus the Mansory valved sport exhaust, V8 output rises from a stock 550-568 PS to roughly 620 PS / 850 Nm, holding the OEM dual-clutch within its torque envelope. The W12 6.0 is not catalogued for a Powerbox in either GTC or GTC Speed trim — Bentley's W12 sits in an engine family with limited factory tuning headroom and Mansory does not run a piggyback module that would shorten service intervals. W12 owners run the body kit only.
The kit is dimensioned around the Mansory M-series fully forged 22" wheel in stagger sizing. OEM 3SK GTC ships at 21"; the Mansory 22" forging trims approximately 4 to 5 kg per corner against the OEM cast wheel and clears the Bentley factory brake package — including the carbon-ceramic disc on GTC Speed — without spacers. PCD 5x112, centre bore 57.1 mm. Patterns: M.7, FD.16, YN.5. Finishes: diamond black, polished silver, gun metal, Mansory bronze, paint-to-OEM-body.

The GTC owner profile concentrates where convertible donors register most strongly — Mediterranean coastal markets, the Gulf, financial-corridor Asia and the Channel Islands and Crown Dependencies. The 2026 commission book skews toward the V8 donor on body-kit-only specifications and the W12 Speed donor on full-spec turnkey commissions.
Carbon panel manufacture 4-5 weeks; body-shop install 10-14 working days; forged wheel set 4 weeks; Powerbox + exhaust install (V8) 1 day.

Will the GTC kit fit my 3SK Continental GT Coupé?
The fender flares, side strakes, front bumper and bonnet are common between the Coupé and the GTC kits. The rear bumper and the deck-lid kick are GTC-specific and will not align on the Coupé's fixed rear deck. Coupé donors take the dedicated 3SK Coupé kit or the trackier-language GT Race programme.
Does the kit interfere with the OEM soft-top operation?
No. The fabric soft-top folds in 19 seconds at speeds up to 50 km/h. The GTC-specific rear bumper and the low-profile deck-lid kick are dimensioned to clear the soft-top hinge through its full deployment range. OEM hydraulic operation, the soft-top tonneau cover and the wind deflector all function unmodified after install.
Is the Powerbox available on the W12 GTC Speed?
No. Bentley's W12 6.0 in any state of tune (635 PS standard, 659 PS Speed) is not catalogued for a Mansory Powerbox. The engine's tuning headroom is limited and the cost-benefit case does not work without compromising the service-interval calibration.
How does the kit affect Bentley's four-year warranty?
Body modifications void warranty obligations on the converted panels. V8 powertrain warranty is typically retained because the Powerbox is reversible at the OBD port and does not modify the OEM ECU map. Owners considering the kit during the warranty window run the conversation past their Bentley dealer first.
Can I run a 23" wheel instead of the matched 22"?
The 22" M-series forging is the matched fitment Mansory engineered for this build. A 23" stagger introduces clearance complications at full lock and shifts the OEM speedometer calibration outside Bentley's tolerance. Mansory does not recommend the 23" route on the GTC.
