a few mods and few pics.

got the car 4 months back and have done only a few mods but intend to primarily keep it stock. what i've done so far:

1. fabspeed muffler bypass ceramic coated satin black
2. pss10's
3. forgeline competition wheels with brushed nickel outers and titanium fasteners with mps2's
4. remove rock guards and tint.

what's remaining is gert's front protection bar and umw's 996 turbo check valves. then i think im done. loooooove loooooooove the way the car drives. im not sure how i feel about the wheels. they're subdued --- but they're going to have to do for now.

Thanks Jim. Somehow still driving that cab at 5k rpm was more fun than than driving the 993tt. The tt is exquisite machine but with the added weight you cant throw it into the corners the same.
