Black 996TT Mods
Hi all. I'm new here but been lurking for awhile.
Great forums! Lots of great ideas and informations.
I have an '03 996 Turbo and want to mod it out but not sure how to go about. Would it be possible if anyone willing to post up photos? Preferrably black Turbos?
Thanks much guys!
Anthony

Suspension and wheels
Bilstein PSS-9 coilover suspension. It will improve both the handling and appearance substantially and is an inexpensive mod.
Look for some lightweight 18" 3-piece wheels with huge lips. They will transform the look of your car. Fat 19's will look even better, but are not worth the considerable deterioration in handling compared to 18's IMHO. Black on black looks menacing on a lowered turbo.

My advice is to get a set of 19" for the street and keep the stock 18" wheels for the track.

Thanks guys for the pictures! Cars look great!
Will 19's look "tucked" without having to lower the car? I don't like to be scraping as it does now. I like the GT2 looks but also the Techart. Can't decide and also wheels. What kind of wheels? I like the staggered look but I need visual. Please any suggestion?
