Those photos look like Porsche website production photos. Did you actually take those photos of your car ? If so, very well done !

Those photos are incredible! They put the Porsche brochure photos to shame. Thanks for sharing. I'd love to see more!

Enjoy!

FIG, you need the chrome "S" tip or the RS60 tip. The rear shots would look much better (if that is even possible!) with those tips. The stock 987 tips suck. :)

FIG, the RS60 tip looks really good in person. It is a nice brushed stainless steel look.

The tip you are showing in the Cayman picture is the "Sport Tip". And I am not too crazy about that one either.

But the chrome "S" tip looks really good:

I am thinking about selling my chrome "S" tip and buying the RS60 tip this summer.

The stock OEM tip on your car dis-colors, and you can clearly see this in your pictures. That's why I think a different tip would have looked more crisp and have the proper color.

Oh, thanks for the clarification ;)

Agreed, the Chrome 'S' tip looks good! And yes my tip has dis-coloured.

I am going to look into the new tip....is there much to do to change over?

Have you thought about a silver hood crest instead of gold? I like the way the black makes the silver wheels, side vents, roll bar, trunk emblem, even the lights run together. A silver emblem would look great.

FIG, to change the exhaust tip, all you need to do is loosen one bolt on the botton side of the tip's clamp.

Wow what pictures
 
The pictures out of this world! Poetry in motion. You can even see Porsche on the brake calipers while being driven.
Good luck with the car and enjoy it!
