My first 991

Hi everyone. Just purchased my first 991 so I'm new to this community, hello.
It's a 2013 Carrera 4S, I've always wanted a 4S. It's still at Porsche because I'm having a few things done to it before I take delivery on the 17 February. Installing a Cargraphic race X-Pipe, 5mm spacers, matt black tail pipes, matt black PORSCHE and 991 real decal, CARRERA 4S side door stickers and 3M gloss black vinyl for the roof. Can't wait for the finished product. Will send more photos when it's complete. Here are a few photos of the car. Cheers.

Congrats, have you thought about the 7mm/15mm spacers instead? Would really make it flush.

Thanks. They had these 5mm lying around and they gave them to me for half price. Let's see how they look. I can always buy the others later. But yeah, they do look a bit better then the 5mm's.

Thanks guys! Yeah, it took 5 years but finally I have my dream 911. Will never forget the 991 launch party in Cape Town. They brought down 60 cars in November 2011 and I still remember saying, "God, that's a stunning car!" Cheers.

I finally said good bye to my Agate Cayman S and picked up my 4S. I was just blown away when I saw the final touches. The Cargraphic exhaust sounds incredible, much louder than the YouTube posts. I can't imagine what the AWE Switchpath must sound like in real life, crazy. Enjoy!

911BOY is on a distinguished road
I learned to drive on my Moms 1971 914 when I was 15 and have been hooked ever since. Just got my first 911 in GR . Unbelievable.

Hi everyone,

My name is Frank and I am new to the 6speedOnline community!

I am planning to get spacers for my 991.1 4S (w/ SPASM) that has the Carrera S wheels. I heard that, for a ''Very FLUSH'' set up, some Porsche wheels require different spacers it could play between 15mm - 17mm and even 18mm in the rear.. and possibly 10mm in the front? Anybody has fitted their 4S (carrera S wheels) with such spacers? (pictures please, if possible)

I've been navigating throughout the forums/topics but I couldn't find a specific answer to my question (considering I have the carrera S wheels that, I believe, are narrower)

A BIG THANK YOU
