Just Bought My First Porsche
Hello Everyone,

I recently purchased my first Porsche and went all out and bought local Champion motorsports modifed GT2 (670 HP). I am new to this forum, but wanted to start posting.

To add to the Black/ Black theme... I had the wheels poweder coated black, the windows 20% tinted, and the lenses on the side, front, and rear clear coat tinted, and installed new Pilot Sports. Thought it turned out great!

Anyways, glad to be here.

Tried to post a pic... hope it shows up.

I ordered "Bad GT2", but can't pick it up till the dealer completes the registration!

Not a bad way to get into the P-Car game! Welcome!

That GT2 looks great. Have you thought about tinting the LEDs in the front?

I did, but I thought they looked good at night so bright... kind of a focus point. I am still on the fence.

I doubt they would be much dimmer than your tinted headlights. Are they covered in a film or spray? Maybe try a removable film before committing completely.

That's a good idea. Yes, the others are clear coat sprayed. testing with a film would give me the benefit to change my mind. I am going to try that.
