Can the CL40 be made in 20". I have a '12 TTS. I'm likely going to change over to CL

Ordered P40SC slightly wider from a company in Calgary 2 weeks ago in Gloss Gold. Another 3 weeks before they show. I am excited to say the least. Would have gone with a vendor on here but shipping, customs and USD made them un competitive.

Who in Calgary did you use? Hre are made in the USA so with nafta there should have been no additional duty.

I ordered them through Tunerworks and picked them up for $5895 installed. I asked around and no one could touch that price.

Hey Spatia,
look forward to comparing pictures in a few weeks.
My car goes in the shop in mid-March for Fab Speed air intake system and supersport exhaust X pipe. Should be an enjoyable spring

under the HRE fitment guide, is this 997 TT using flush fitment or HRE standard fitment? are there any real life comparable pics of the difference in flush and HRE standard fitment, the illustration in the PDF brochure was too vague

Gorgeous and wonderful match for a black Turbo. Although I did not know my first gen P40 is now passe - new gen is lighter as well? That's actually very nice, as first gen P40 was a little bit on the heavy side; lighter than stock, but still a little porky; and of course un-sprung and rotational weight at the wheel is a most critical place to cut.

BTW, pic of the first gen P40 (red car) is at bottom for comparison with the latest gen P40SC (black car). Note the difference in the curvature of the rear wheels. I actually prefer the fuller older shape but if HRE ever offers me an even swap for the newer lighter wheel, I don't think I would say no. :-)

I've always thought P40 is an instant classic since the first time I saw it - the curvaceous line to match the 911 form itself is ingenious and boggles the mind :-) - and would become one of HRE's all time best sellers; it seems that prediction is going to hold true.
