The car looks great. I would not have done 20" wheels though. BTW those Modular Concept wheels look really good.
The company is right down here close to me and I'm tempted to try them out.
They offer various wheel finishes. I like the CF look. That is an overlay but who cares it looks good!
The GMG bumpers (front & rear) are carbon kevlar? What is the weight savings?
The 3 looks hot and a rare color I believe.
Good luck and enjoy.

dont regret it the slightes bit... car does look much better in person or proper lighting and photography skills Bumpers are carbon kevlar i do believe + had to remove the complete set of heatshields to run cup car setup. You might notice it if you look closely that not only do the mufflers show but the bumpers actually end a little higher than an oem, we removed the rear center heatshield as well because it kept showing.
Dont know the exact weight lost, GMG should be able to help.

VUDU - Wheels do look much better in person, that i must admit and the pics don't do it any justice. I had all my work done by RUF as an excpetion which took a while i must admit but with amazing follow up, even by Mr. Ruf himself since he's in and out of the island. They're also the dealers for DYMAG's if you're interested. Never knew there was another red GT on the island btw. i thought mine was the last !!! looool
Behbehani can do whatever work you want too, i've had then do a few things for me before - SHIRAZI YOU BETTER BE READING THIS
As for your question in terms of mods, the sharky bypass wont affect your car being a daily driver what so ever, if anything i just tends to make u drive faster. The mesh and front splittler i did knowing i wont be able to use the car much, but i must admit, it hasn't been too much of a pain, perhaps the 20's compensated for some clearance.
- hope this helps

... and forgot to get all the customs paperwork done properly 
!! So it took a while to get that sorted as you can imagine.. I didn't know RUF sold DYMAGs, but I've heard of some issues with them regarding durability/cracking/air leaks so I don't know if I'm ready to pay $$$$ and have problems like that. I need to have a chat with Luther about this
or I'll just go with Champions as I've had great experience with them (thanks Khalid )The mesh is a no-brainer it has to be done but I want to see the sharkwerks bypass in person before making a decision on it
Anyway, you've got a beautiful ride! Enjoy it in good health!

Man, I think the wheels look great. I know the benefits of going with the smaller wheel, however, focusing on how the car looks sitting still, I like it a lot.
