.. and by that i'm guessing, it pushed you over to deciding that you do in fact like it right?

I hate tuning
I don't understand why making this ugly transformation, and losing the real essence of a 911 Carrera.
If you want to have a 997 GT3 RS just purchase it

Well I am not a fan of the kit, but there is NOTHING on that car that resembles a 997 GT3 RS....the bumpers, wing, skirts, fenders, exhaust are all different.....The only thing similar is the color.

Yes.
I agree with you.

The perpetrator of this crime is not a real Porsche lover.

What I mean against this kind of kits is that Porsche develop a model, and they invest lots of money to achieve a good result in the set up.
Every aerodynamic detail have been tested in a wind tunnel. Every wing, every little lip.
If you add this kit to your 911 you are killing the car. It's perfect to be stopped, but I'll never drive a car like this at high speed.
I like OEM parts to improve the car not this ugly monstrosity

That's why I don't like tuning

Although I disagree with 'transformers' perhaps there are other firms who can modify your car with greats results, as RUF, etc, 'cause they have good engineering.
