Love a car with beaded Rain on it....glistening and beautiful.

Some would say, oh no, it got rained on, so now its not worth as much.....just silly considering that every time you wash it, its been "rained" on.

Beaded water adds a whole new dimension and its a good thing

I wonder if our PCA club would combine a Porsche Photoshoot with a Runway show so we can get some hot Girls (And maybe a James bond type guy or two if your so inclined) to get their pictures taken with our beloved cars.
Hmmmm, there must be a way to combine ALL our favorite things and get photos.


Heres mine, I need to take more pictures.

The day after I picked up the car in Germany, on a side road before getting back on the Autobahn towards Stuttgart to visit the mothership. :-)

My favorite pic was taken by a professional photographer at a local Porsche a couple of years ago. It is fun to look at the pic because my car has been under cover in the garage since the beginning of December, and it will likely be there until late March with how the Winter is going so far.

Hey Perfectlap,
Yes, it is the OEM lip spoiler designed for the 2004 GT3 996. I bought the AerokitII bumper from a guy that was returning his car to stock before selling it, and it already had this lip spoiler. I have seen a smaller lip spoiler on this bumper as well, but I really like how aggressive this one looks.

Interesting, the 996.2 GT3 lip spoiler wraps around the sides of the bumper and not just the front. There must be two versions.

BTW, have you considered adding the GT3tek Boxster Spyder rear bumper spoiler? Its a flexible polyurethane and sticks over the current bumper with just a couple of screws. Makes it look current for cheap.
