Thanks guys! I think you two both do it right all the time, even back in our g35driver days.

Thanks doc! I'm running a custom center muffler bypass with Borla headers, so the sound is pretty intense. Compared to a stock GT3, its a lot louder, deeper and throatier.

Thank you. The clearance from the bottom of the lip to the asphalt is about 2"


Thanks for all the comments, good and bad

Thanks man, G35driver day's hah, it's what started the madness

Take some videos of your exhaust, I would love to hear it! I wonder if the stock GT3 muffler would bolt up, or like sharky's custom pipe's!

They figured if they made a car that looked like a Mercedes, it was therefore like having a Mercedes! Wrong!
But to each his own. Enjoy your ride. That is what it is all about.
So, someone with a C2S with an aerokit is a poser? I think the GT3 front/back look great. I don't think the OP is trying to make his car into a GT3, he just likes the look. Now if he added a GT3 badge, well...

Thanks, the wing is aftermarket, and both front and rear bumper fit non widebody just fine since the GT3 is a non-widebody.

Thanks. I really do love the GT3 look, and i'm not trying to make the car something it isn't with fake badging etc. I remember someone posted a white 997 S with full GT3RS treatment including the RS badging and side decals, that's just wrong. I really do love the GT3, and if I had the means to have one, I would, but for now, i'm working with what i've got.
