I think i'd have to see the front painted to pass worthy judgement. The rear looks too deep for the car if that makes any sense.

Interesting look BUT feel its trying a bit too hard to be a fake 997. Also the rear looks too heavy with a jaw line that sticks out too much in order to cover the rear exhaust. Almost reminds me of a Stormtrooper helmet from Star Wars!

The best kit to me is really still the Techart GT Street- it was made for the 996 and just looks absolutely the best in my opinion.

Interesting. Would like to see the front bumper painted! Hard to tell unpainted.

The back doesn't look that great IMO.

interesting... I've seen a few 996----> 997/TT/GT3 front end conversions (ads in magazine and here). I wonder how they actually turn out since most of the pictures I've seen are unpainted bumpers. I think this type of modification would hurt resale value more than help but that's just my 0.02$... I do love the look of the 997 models.. just think that it looks better on a 997 as intended....
