Looks clean and slick. Yea, no tint. It fades after hot summers, i hate aftermarket tints.

pardon my ignorance, but are you allowed to do all this to a leased car?
Or are you gonna put all the OEM stuff back on when ur lease is up?

i have all the stock parts, i plan to put back whatever i can (im planning on doing some alcantara on the steering wheel and seats, so thats not reversible). when i returned my clk55 it still had tinted front lights (blue film) and tinted rear lights (black film), a loud aftermarket exhaust and clk500 wheels , the stocks were sold. they didnt say anything, i dont think it should be a problem, youre "upgrading" the car, as long as its done right.

Looks good nice upgrades and aggressive stance with H&R's. I really like the wheels on the CLS they look good.

No badge - badgless - debadge - while I ordered mine without it for the weight savings (hahaha), your 997 continues to show Pcars don't need no stinking badges!

It looks sweet - the wheels look evil and give it away that you are not to be taken lightly out on the road!

I debadged my C2S Cab. and after a few weeks decided to have Eric (Bumper Plugs) paint the Carrera S logo the color of the car, slate grey. I love it.

Nice looking car, but I think it looks a little naked, I prefer the badges.

I don't know guys!!!!! I'm not that crazy with the de-badged thing.... for me it looks like an unfinished body work. that's how i see it. what do you guys think? it could be cause i'm a rookie with P-cars?

De badge or not de badge that is the Question !!
Both cars look fantastic I am a Fan of de-badging however the Porsche Letter Fonts in my opinion are unique and love em thus I will not de -badge any Porsche is like a trademark, and I will not Tint the 997 looks sweets as it is.

Congrats !!!

coming from a guy whos had a de-badge i have come to realize that i prefer a re-badge i went from oem badging to nekedness...to a custom re-badge i did myself...after a while the badgeless rear started to look too BLAH to me either way i love the way your 997 looks sitttin on those hre's!! btw...i think "911s" would look stunning on the bootay of your 997!! just a biased opinion though
