the thing about grafix is that they can be taken off, Its nice to change it up once in a while. A car is never done if you have the modding personality. If I had to guess Id say the owner of the car does have the mod bug, Not sure

Either way Look how many transformations stages his car has gone thru, A couple grafix here and there will only brighten up the party.

I think it will be cool whatever he chooses and bottom line is they can/ possibly will be changed before the transformation is complete. That's the beauty of a wrap.

Your comments gave me a good laugh too.

The old look of the white/red was cool, but after awhile.... I thought it was too redundant on the RS graphics.

The new look of virgin white is kinda boring for me, but its a cleaaaaan look for now until the graphics come on.

The wing is either you love it or hate it. The uprights were actually painted black from factory, but I decided to take the paint through bead blasting and getting the uprights brushed to look like the uprights of the 997.2 cup uprights.

HREs are cool wheels and luv'em, but the BBS is a timeless design and it never gets old (IMHO)

But thank you for your reply.



Thanx GURU
Well You asked for it.... I though the first set up you had was pure sex on wheels; the one with the red graphics. I think if you powder coated the wing plates it would look better. It just looks un-finished.

Timeless the BBS style snow flakes are but I guess I have never really liked them.

No matter how you spell it you have a cool car

i respect that you have the right to do whatever you want with your car and your hard-earned cash, but if you passed me on the street i would much enjoy seeing the car without any graphics. clean is the way to go.

but if you are going to put on graphics anyway, i'm still kind of interested in how it comes out.
EVIL PANDA: Thanx for your open view..... sounds positive in either light.

All my cars are white, just want to have a little color for now since its a white pretty canvas of a GT3 to spill color on!!!!

LOPRO: You have answered the graphics decision for me on the dot!!!! lol

But one thing is wrong, I don't have a mod bug, but a mod disease!!!! Its a freakin cancer that never stops!!!! DRATZ!!!!! :/

Always modding to make the GT3 to my style and taste.

Thats why I love reading and looking at everyones builds!!!!

Love hearing everyones views

Thanx for your honesty also bro on what you think and would do!!!!

I LOVE BBS, but I sure wish they would of made the 997.2 cup car wheels (the bigger snowflake) in a 5 lug.

If they did that I think BBS would make a killing on wheels!!!!!

BTW - your yellow turbo is the BISUNESS!!!! LUV IT!!!!

Thanks... Actually I am excited to get my hands on it. I have not been excited about a car in years. My car is getting a full Ohlins suspension package and a few other goodies to make it handle so I look forward to tuning that. I just wish the race track in my city was not bulldozed.

I love the yellow, I did want white or even RS orange but this car was optioned up how I liked for the most part... No problem though as it will fit right into my stable considering many of my other vehicles are some form of yellow.

My truck is Yellow, Black and white.
My Planes Is Black, yellow, white and red.
My Race bikes Are Yellow, Red and black
My dirt bikes are Red and Yellow.

Gee I wonder if I like Yellow.

I wish I could bolt a GT3 RS front bumper on to the front of my 996. I think the styling of that bumper is spot on for the front of the porsches.

Where did you purchase the front lip? Was it an easy swap?

Thumbs up

No prob, Thanks Jbigelow01, If i can I want to try to help others out as im sure Ive asked many questions and People help me out on this forum and rennlist so returning the favor is the least I can do.

as for the lip, I just heard from GMG and they said its now 220 for that cup splitter. I wonder why it went up in price.
