Updated Pics.. Clean black 996tt!!

Wanted to share some before/after pics of the car to see what you guys think. I have a photo shoot coming up this week so I'll have better pics for you guys with the new setup. I had the window tints taken off so that the roll bad would be visible, and it just gives the car a way cleaner look!! I had the calipers all repainted and new wheels put on by Strasse Forged. I went with there 3 piece R10 wheel with a step lip. Amazing how rims can change the whole look of a car! I had some 5 star splitted hre's before that just didn't do it for me and the guys over at Strasse hooked me up so everything worked out perfect! Hope you guys like

Front lip is Carbon Fiber and purchased from Ray over at Rottec. No issues with scraping if you are very careful. Gotta come out of every shopping center at an angle as well as going over speed bumps. And I always back in to parking spots.

your brake caliper is installed upside down. The bleeders must point up, and the transfer line must be on the bottom, or else you will never be able to remove air from the line.

You're rite. The guys at the shop just threw them on like that to send me a pic of the brakes painted. As you can see the pads weren't mounted yet either.

Last couple pics with the other cars are nice.

Congrats on the new wheels, car looks good. Did you consider blacking out the center caps to match?

Looks great. If I dare to wash my car this time of the year, it will almost instantly rain, or it will wait till the next time I take the car out of the garage, then instantly rain. Still, love your wheels. car looks really nice.
