The car looks great and flawless but your pictures are absolutedly perfect!!!!!! They look like a professional took them.

what about the back? it looked like you put in the all black tail lights in a previous photo.
Any plans for some grill inserts? I think the chroming/polishing the horizontal louver type grills that come on the 911 Turbo would be cool. It would be a pretty easy DIY with some door edge protector stripping. I don't really like the all mesh look.
I saw a knock off front bumper like this on Ebay a few weeks back. It was being sold by some racers. Theirs was made of Carbon fiber and had a kevlar lower lip edge. Sold for about $1200 I think. a great deal. They only made one which they had to scrap because of rule changes to aero parts.

How has the ride quality changed since lowering and going 18"?

P.S.
Looks great without the side skirting!

Very impressive indeed. It looks like you really take good care of your sleds there. What kind of wax/polish do you use? Really dig the BBS wheels on black btw.

On my dialup I had to go to lunch while they loaded, but - very nice pics. Black looks perfect when polished like your's. Congrads.

I knew that name looked familiar!

So how do you like the 986 compared to the S2K? Any problems associated with them other than engine failure i should research? Im going to go look at a 986S this friday and if all goes well, will be trading in the S2 :dance:

Very late response but where did you get the RuF front bumper?

Awesome!!

The Racer's Group used to race with RUF bumper you might give them a call and see if they have one left over. Might want to act quick since 04 was the last year they made this bumper.
